The actual percentile does not work like that.

The way they score still looks like a mystery to me. It appears as if you score 51 or higher on the math section, you are at the 99 percentile already. However, I have no idea how they come up with the 60 points system.

No no.... 44 is a scaled score which got nothing to do with percentages...

44 is a good score, it translates into 74%. 74% scored below your score...

Thanks for the info.

Does anyone have a list or a link to a webpage, which shows relation b/w the score and the percentile (% people scored below it) for GMAT ?

Though GMAT scale score(0-60) is not exactly equal to PR scale score but I would say that 44 is good no. to start with particularly if you have not prepared!

Aim for 50-51 it should be achievable. BTW 51-52 is highest you can get! I have not seen 52+ even with 790 and 800 candidates!
