<p>XAT score is calculated on the basis of raw scores obtained a candidate in each section. In the XAT exam, every correct answer carries 1 mark and every incorrect entry carries &ndash; 0.25 marks. There is no negative marking for skipping a question. But, in case of eight consecutive unanswered questions, 0.10 marks will be deducted.&nbsp;XAT has about 99 questions on which the score calculation is done. So, for example, if you have got 70 questions correct and 8 questions in correct, then your raw XAT score will be 70 &ndash; 1 = 69.</p><p>If you have not answered 8 questions consecutively, then your score will be 69- 0.10 = &nbsp;68.90. This raw score will be further calculated to arrive at XAT percentile.
