This post is for you guys... On your "Never Ending" queries regarding Calculating Overall Percentile.... I heard Elitmus has now a days stopped providing "Overall Percentile" and i can see why that happened... But before i proceed with this post... below are the links of my previous three posts, so that you can get the idea.... What i am talking about in this post... :D
- First Step: Elitmus Inrtoduction
- Main POST: The Trick to Score 90+ percentile in Elitmus
- Frequently Asked Question(FAQ's)
So lets begin... But first thing first.
*** This Post is to help you in "Estimating Overall Percentile"... It "Doesn't Guarantee"that the "Estimation will be 100% accurate. I don't know any Solid Formula to calculate percentile, its all Observation/Experiance. So please avoid taking any "Load" faltu mai...!!!

Hmm.. having said that... here we go :)
A rough idea about Sectional Percentile:
A rough idea about Sectional Percentile:
Quant;
- 0 marks --- 40 percentile
- Up-to 10 Marks(1 correct question) --- 50+ percentile
- Up-to 20 Marks(2 correct question) --- 60+ percentile
- Up-to 30 Marks(3 correct question) --- 75+ percentile
- 30+ marks --- 80-85+ percentile
See....this is why i Emphasis on "Attempting Less But with Accuracy" :)
Reasoining:
- Up-to 20 Marks(2 correct question) --- 40+ percentile
- Up-to 30 Marks(3 correct question) --- 50+ percentile
- Up-to 40 Marks(4 correct question) --- 65+ percentile
- Up-to 50 Marks(5 correct question) --- 80+ percentile
- 50+ Marks --- 85+ percentile
Verbal:
- Up-to 20 Marks(2 correct question) --- 20+ percentile
- Up-to 60 Marks(6 correct question) --- 60+ percentile
- Up-to 90 Marks(9 correct question) --- 85+ percentile
- Up-to 100 marks --- 90+ percentile
- 120+ marks --- 96+ percentile
Now Calculating "Overall Percentile".... umm sorry... "Estimating Overall Percentile" :)
Some sectional percentile combination which will give you idea about estimating overall percentile.
- Quant 50 + Reasoning 85 + Verbal 95 == 90+ overall percentile
- Quant 30 + Reasoning 70 + Verbal 95 == 80+ overall percentile
- Quant 80 + Reasoning 80 + Verbal 90 == 95+ overall percentile
- Quant 60 + Reasoning 80 + Verbal 90 == 85+ overall percentile
You can observe that "weightage of Sectional Score in Overall percentile" is as: Quant > Reasoning > Verbal
Now Please.... Don't start asking question like... "How come X after getting A,B,C sectional score has his/her percentile Greater than me when mine score is Nearly Equal/Equal/Greater than him/her????"
I think this is the REASON, why Elitmus has Stopped giving Over all Percentile. They got their "Algorithm" their "Method"...... Whatever it may be... and However it may work..... BUT its upto them....!!! All you guys can focus on is Scoring As high as Possible.
Hope this suffices your queries. I will encourage you guys to "Get those guys, who got their Overall Percentile(who gave elitmus when, elitmus used to provide overall percentile) and Post it in Comments"... so that you will have more Examples to compare your percentile. :)

Rafi saahab.. your percentile will be somewhere around 75+ which is enough for you to get you interview calls for Accenture and some other companies...
Accenture asks for 70 percentile i Guess...!!
so... Best Wishes :)(:
Question:
Amita JainJanuary 9, 2014 at 11:35 PM
sir, pls tell me ... companies see only overall percentile of elitmus or for each sections like Quant, Reasoning, and english seperately....Amita JainAnswer:
Akhilesh Chandra BhattJanuary 13, 2014 at 6:08 AM
Hi Amita.. I am not sure about this thing... !!!
But to be on safer side.... Try to get at least DECENT marks in all sections... Its quite unlikely that you will get a call on scoring 99 percentile in reasoning and verbal while having 0 in quant..!!!
