Where can I see my UCAT ANZ scores?

Once you've sat your UCAT exam, Pearson VUE would've sent you an email confirming that your scores are ready to be viewed.

Simply log into your Pearson VUE account to view your score report.

Making sense of your UCAT scores

In your report, each section of the UCAT will have a scaled score between 300-900. These are derived from your raw marks (the number of correct answers for each section).

The higher the performance, the greater the score. The scaled scores of the first four sections (VR, DM, QR and AR) are summed to give a total cognitive section score between 1200-3600, while the Situational Judgement Test (SJT) section is scored separately.

Final scores for UCAT ANZ 2024

The mean total scaled score (VR + DM + QR + AR) was 2588. 

This represents a small (1%) increase compared to the 2023 final score of 2563.

Across all deciles, a higher score was required to achieve the same decile in 2023. In other words, the UCAT is becoming increasingly competitive.

By using the table below, you can work out which decile you belong to. For example, if you’ve scored 2900, you’ll be in the 8th decile, meaning that you are in the top 20% of your cohort.

| Decile | Total Cognitive Scaled Score |
| --- | --- |
| 1st Decile | 2150 |
| 2nd Decile | 2290 |
| 3rd Decile | 2390 |
| 4th Decile | 2480 |
| 5th Decile | 2570 |
| 6th Decile | 2660 |
| 7th Decile | 2770 |
| 8th Decile | 2900 |
| 9th Decile | 3060

To check your exact percentile, head over to the official UCAT ANZ test statistics page and scroll down to the '2024 Percentile Look Up'. This will allow you to see where your final scores sit compared to the rest of the UCAT ANZ candidates in 2024.

The total score will be used by medical and dental schools to decide who to interview and/or offer a place.

Situational Judgement Test scores

The mean SJT score was 569.

| Decile | SJT Score |
| --- | --- |
| 1st Decile | 471 |
| 2nd Decile | 512 |
| 3rd Decile | 539 |
| 4th Decile | 560 |
| 5th Decile | 578 |
| 6th Decile | 596 |
| 7th Decile | 614 |
| 8th Decile | 632 |
| 9th Decile | 656

The table above can be used to work out how well you performed in the SJT section. 

For example, if your SJT score is 623, you will be in the 7th decile and around the 75th percentile.

What is a good UCAT score? What UCAT score is needed to gain an interview offer?

A good UCAT score changes from year to year, as the percentile cut-offs fluctuate over time. Usually, a UCAT ANZ score of at least 80th percentile (ideally 90th) is required for entry into medical and dental programmes, unless you have a very high ATAR or are applying from a rural or Indigenous background.

Therefore, a score of 2900 or over can be considered as a good UCAT score in 2024, and a score of 3060 or higher can be considered as very competitive.

Each university uses the UCAT ANZ in different ways. Read the following articles to find out more:

• List of medical schools using the UCAT ANZ

• List of dental schools using the UCAT ANZ

• Comprehensive ANZ admissions guide

Also, make sure to:

• Get your medical interview prep on the go. Medical or dental school interviews can be challenging; the more prepared you are, the better. Don’t leave it until the last minute to prepare; even choosing the correct outfit can take a considerable amount of time and effort.

• Do your best to gain the highest grades for your ATAR. Combine this with a great UCAT ANZ score and a respectable interview performance, and you’ll have a solid chance of landing yourself an offer.

What if my UCAT score is not very high?

An average UCAT score does not mean the end of the road for you. If you are:

• A local applicant, 

• A rural applicant, 

• An Indigenous applicant,

• A student expecting to gain an extremely high ATAR

you may still have a chance to be offered an interview.

You should still prepare for your exams and interview as much as possible to maximise your chances.

You can also consider the following options:

Find another route

There is more than one way to get into medical or dental schools.

Some universities, such as James Cook University and Bond University, don’t require you to sit the UCAT ANZ for their medical or dental programmes. 

Apply to these universities and give the interviews and examinations everything you’ve got.

Another option is to study another undergraduate degree (ideally science-based) and apply as a graduate after sitting the GAMSAT. 

If you have the financial means, you can also consider studying overseas, such as the UK and Eastern Europe.

Did you know? Your UCAT ANZ scores can be used for applying to UK courses.

Try again

Consider taking a gap year and resitting the UCAT ANZ next year.
