I was wondering if there was a conversion factor for # of questions answered correct into the raw score?

The number of questions correct is the raw score. You must mean the scaled score. Go register at http://www.e-mcat.com (its free) and they have a page that lists the range of raw scores for each scaled score. Keep in mind that it varies, though only slightly, for each examination. There is also a topic under the "best mcat posts) stickied at the top of this forum that has conversion charts, but I am not sure if they have been updated since the new shorter CBT.
 
Also remember that the MCAT is a relatively-scaled exam; the raw score will be converted into a scaled score based on the overall performance of those taking the exam.
