The NTA PG CUET percentile score is a measure of the percentage of students who achieved a score lower than the one obtained by the student. To calculate the percentile score of a student, you need to first add up the total number of students who appeared for the exam. Then, divide this total number by the number of students who achieved a score lower than the student in question. The resulting figure is the percentile score of the student.

The students must score the percentile marks equal or above the CUET PG 2025 cut off to be eligible for admission. Candidates can check the expected CUET cut-off to get an idea about the percentile marks they need to score to get admission in the participating colleges of the CUET PG 2025. The cutoff of CUET PG 2025 is the minimum marks that candidates have to obtain to qualify the NTA CUET PG entrance test.
