How is the BMAT scored?
I know sections 1 and 2 are marked on a scale from 1 to 9
And that section 3 is from 1 to 15
But how are these numbers worked out based o the number of questions you answer correctly?
Is there some sort of formula?
Just curious because I would quite like to see what Im getting on the practice tests.
Knowing me it's probably very easy to work out and Im just being an idiot Haha
Thankyouverymuch

There is a formula, but we don't know it. Broadly speaking it's a hell of a lot harder than a level so look nearer the half and halfs than the 80%

do colleges select you for interview based on your total score or your individual scores for each section? Out of 33 what do you think would be a good score in order to be asked for an interview?

The marking changes every year... the conversion table might work differently this year...

if you take a look at the graphs they release every year you will see that in sections 1 and 2 the average is around 4.7 and 5... I believe that's how they mark you... If you did better than the average you get 5 or more
