CAT 2025 Answer Key has been released, and the link to download the provisional key and response sheet is now active on iimcat.ac.in. IIM Kozhikode has published the official answers along with candidates’ question-wise responses. The release covers 2.58 lakh test takers who appeared for the MBA entrance exam this year.
The institute has also introduced a major change in the objection process. Unlike previous years, the CAT 2025 answer key objection window will open after four days, instead of on the same day as the response sheet release.

CAT 2025 Provisional Answer Key and Response Sheet Access

- Visit iimcat.ac.in.
- Click on Candidate Login / Response Sheet / Objection Window.

- Open the response sheet and download the PDF.
CAT 2025 Score vs Percentile
The following table offers an indicative comparison of CAT 2025 score vs percentile, helping candidates estimate where they stand based on expected marks.
Percentile | Score |
99.9 | 122 |
99.5 | 103 |
99 | 90 |
98 | 81 |
95 | 70 |
90 | 53 |
85 | 45 |
80 | 40 |

These values give candidates a broad idea of likely percentile positioning, although the final percentiles will depend on the official CAT 2025 normalization process.
