The impact of Non MCQs on your percentile in CAT 2016 could be greater than you anticipated as the candidates who solved more Non-MCQs without any fear of negative marking could score higher percentile than their peers.

The biggest benefit to attempt a Non-MCQ in CAT exam is that the wrong answer does not impose any penalty of negative marking while MCQ type of questions followed by answers options impose penalty of 1/3 mark for each wrong answer. It carries your actual score down.
