i understand that MCAT is scored on percentile meaning you scored higher
Than 80% of people who took test than your score is etc but what percent of total questions or how many one need to get right to be classified as this percentile and etc?

1. AAMC does not report raw scores. Only scaled scores are reported.

2. Raw-to-scale score conversion is not known.

3. Raw-to-scale score conversion varies from exam to exam depending on overall difficulty and subsection difficulty.

Meaning?

The # of scorable (non-experimental) questions you need to get right in order to score at a certain percentile is different for each test. And no one knows this magical number. Just study and do your best.
