CAT 2025 DILR Marks vs Expected Percentile comparison is honestly one of the most searched things every year, because this section can feel unpredictable for a lot of test takers. The Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning part is well-known for being tricky, time-consuming, and sometimes even a little confusing, so knowing the CAT marks vs percentile 2025 trend helps students figure out where they actually stand. Even before the official results come out, these estimates give you a decent idea of your expected percentile and how close you are to the cutoffs of top IIMs.

For this year, the CAT 2025 DILR marks vs expected percentile projections show that scoring around 34 to 42 marks can comfortably push your percentile towards 99.5 to 99.9. Meanwhile, extremely high scorers touching 57.7+ marks might see themselves at a perfect 100th percentile, which is obviously very rare but still very helpful as a benchmark. Many students also aim for the 98 to 98.9 percentile range, where the expected DILR marks usually fall somewhere between 27 to 29 marks.

Apart from percentile predictions, students also check expected IIM DILR cutoffs. For example, IIM Ahmedabad usually keeps its DILR sectional cutoff around the 85th percentile for the general category, while newer or baby IIMs may keep it somewhere between the 50th to 75th percentile, depending on the category. So even scoring just above 25 marks in DILR can give you a strong advantage at many institutes. Knowing these cutoffs along with the CAT 2025 DILR marks vs percentile chart helps you plan your MBA admission targets better.

The DILR section has always been the part where accuracy matters even more than attempting everything. Since there are fewer sets but each set is heavy, even a small jump in marks can improve your DILR score vs percentile drastically. Historical trends show that students who maintain strong reasoning and problem-solving abilities, and avoid unnecessary guesswork, tend to get higher percentiles even with fewer attempts. That’s why understanding this CAT marks vs percentile curve is useful for planning your exam strategy, evaluating mocks, and even preparing for the next rounds of admission.
