NEET MDS Percentile Vs Percentage

Students often get confused between their percentile rank and percentage. Go through the following table to understand the difference between NEET MDS Percentile and NEET MDS Percentage.

S.No.

NEET MDS Percentile

NEET MDS Percentage

1

The percentile rank tells how well a student has performed in comparison to others.

The percentage tells how good a student has performed in the exam itself. 

2

A percentile just tells a student's merit position amongst the rest of the students.

The percentage does not tell the same.

3

The percentile rank never gives details of the marks obtained by a candidate. 

The percentage is simply calculated based on the scores obtained by students in the test. 

4

For instance, if a candidate is at the 80th percentile, it means that she/ he has scored better than 80 per cent of the total students who appeared in the exam.    

For instance, if a student has scored 80% in NEET MDS, it means that the candidate scored 768 marks out of the total score of 960.
