MCAT Score Scaling

aboynamedsooie · May 13, 2010

Any information out there about the typical scoring scale of the MCAT (i.e. how many questions must you miss to get a 10 in each section)?

The reason I ask is to see how applicable my Kaplan and AAMC practice test scores are to the real thing.

Even though every test is curved, the curve doesn't move much. This is the scale from AAMC CBT #10, it should serve as a good reference point.

----PS---- VR--- BS
15 52-52 40-40 51-52
14 50-51 39-39 50-50
13 49-49 38-38 47-49
12 46-48 37-37 46-46
11 44-45 34-36 43-45
10 41-43 31-33 39-42
9 38-40 29-30 35-38
8 33-37 27-28 32-34
7 28-32 24-26 29-31
6 23-27 21-23 26-28
5 19-22 19-20 23-25
4 15-18 15-18 20-22
3 11-14 12-14 16-19
2 8-10 9-11 14-15
1 0-7 0-8 0-13

So on Test Day, if I (only) miss 10 questions in the Physical and Biological Sciences, I should have around a 10 on each section?
