I was wondering what kind of raw percentage you have to score(approximately) to get a desired MCAT score. Will getting 85% of the problems correct on the physical sciences get me an 11? will a 90% get me a 10? how does it break down?

DetectiveChubby said:damn....according to this scale...i have been getting 12s and 13s on the verbal and i didn't even know!

I seriously wish those were the %'s for those kind of scores.

gujuDoc said:good point, I thought the people above figured that was questions right. I didn't realize they thought those were percentages.
That might explain why the poster above thought he had had a 14, 14, 15 kind of score.
Trying to compare these for the new mcat. The 2015 official practice test only gives % correct in the score - hard to get real diagnostic/comparison. Wanted to see what avg % correct would've aligned with for percentile on the old scale to get an idea of how much work I need to do. Anyone have an idea? Does anyone have a link for that scale on the aamc website? Having a hard time finding those numbers.
