According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Body Mass Index (BMI) is a statistic that indicates the ratio of a person's weight to their body volume. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) uses the table to classify children from ages 2 to 20. Because BMI values change as children grow, the CDC uses percentiles rather than fixed values for BMI. Percentiles provide a basis of comparison for BMI over time.
Weight status Percentile range
Underweight: Less than the 5th percentil
Healthy weight: 5th percentile to less than the 85th percentile
Overweight: 85th to less than the 95th percentile
Obese: Equal to or greater than the 95th percentile
