As I understand it, the raw score is the standard test score you’d receive in any test (usually as a percentage) and relates to just you. The percentile is how you fared in comparison to others taking the same test. So in an initial recruitment test, you may score 90% over all which alone, would be a pass, but if everybody else scored 98%, you’d be the lowest, so wouldn’t be progressed. They often grade results from A-D or whatever, but the principal is the same.

Most initial assessments you’re sent from TOCs for any role use percentile scoring as it’s an easy and effective way of sifting candidates.

Hey bud,thankx for the reply,i got 2 really high scores and 3rd was a pass but a low one at 37 raw score bit because it said this,i thought it was different to percentile.
