CC has a 35 (percentile) pass mark!
I had always worked under the assumption it was 50 because that's what an associate who I used to vaguely know there told me! But I'll defer to you on this as I was told this back in 2018 so probably out of date.

What does it mean by percentile like is the 10th percentile better than 87th percentile or is it the other way round.Remember pass marks will be percentiles rather than percentages. The two things are very different - you could be 90% right but be in the 10th percentile.
99th percentile is the highest (best) score, 1st is the lowest.What does it mean by percentile like is the 10th percentile better than 87th percentile or is it the other way round.
Thank you for this.99th percentile is the highest (best) score, 1st is the lowest.
Thank you for this.
It's used here in India too, for MBA extrance examinations. According to that method, there are some 8 students who receive 100 percentile, then it further reduces to 99.99 and so on.Essentially it's the percentage of people you're better than. So if you're in the 99th percentile, you are better than 99% of other candidates who take the test. It's a very very American concept and they use it a lot in their standardised testing systems for exams like the SATs etc.
It might not be the people taking the test (although it sometimes is). Sometimes you are benchmarked against an external group. That could be anything from partners/senior lawyers in the firm to a general graduate pool.Essentially it's the percentage of people you're better than.

You technically can't get the 100th percentile. Highest would be 99.It's used here in India too, for MBA extrance examinations. According to that method, there are some 8 students who receive 100 percentile, then it further reduces to 99.99 and so on.
I know. That's just a threshold set. So the top 8 always have 100.You technically can't get the 100th percentile. Highest would be 99.
This is true as CC grad recruiter said that we assess your Watson Glaser score and compare it to our current trainees.It might not be the people taking the test (although it sometimes is).

I'm confused 😬I know. That's just a threshold set. So the top 8 always have 100.
I'm confused 😬
Whoever wrote that doesn't understand percentiles 😂‘Perfect score’: Nine ace CAT exam, bag 100 percentile
Of the nine students who have scored a perfect 100 percentile seven were from the engineering background.www.hindustantimes.com

That's just reporting. I'm telling you this is how it works in India, although I disagree with the method, coz there can never be 100th.Whoever wrote that doesn't understand percentiles 😂
Craziness of inflating grades to try and make it look like perfection. 🙄That's just reporting. I'm telling you this is how it works in India, although I disagree with the method, coz there can never be 100th.

As a lawyer, you at going to make lots of mistakes. They just want to see they you can learn from when you make them. So the me component of this is how you learnt from it and how the situation improved by your trying to resolve the mistake or not make it again.Hi everyone, I'm trying to tackle this question: 'Please give us an example of when you have learned from a mistake. What was the mistake you made, and what did you learn from it?'
I'm finding it really difficult to think of a mistake I have made that would be suitable in this context... Does anyone have any ideas on how I can approach this question or how to think more broadly of an appropriate answer, please?
