Questions people ask

What percentile is a 510 on the MCAT?

In AAMC's table valid May 1, 2026 to April 30, 2027, a total of 510 is the 79th percentile: 79% of scores from 2023 to 2025 were 510 or lower.

Is the MCAT percentile the same as percent correct?

No. A percentile ranks your scaled score among other test takers. How many questions you answered correctly is a different number that AAMC does not report as a percentile.

Is there a raw score to scaled score conversion for the MCAT?

Not a universal one. AAMC equates each test form separately, so the number of correct answers needed for a given scaled score changes from form to form.

Is one MCAT test month easier than another?

Scores are equated across forms and there is no curve against the people testing on your day, so a score means the same whenever you test. Choose a date by your readiness, score-release timing and application plans.

What is the average MCAT score?

The mean total in the current table is 500.6 with a standard deviation of 11.2. Section means are 124.9 (Chem/Phys), 124.6 (CARS), 125.1 (Bio/Biochem) and 125.9 (Psych/Soc).

How we work this out

What it does

See AAMC's percentile rank for any MCAT total or section score, from the table in effect May 1, 2026 to April 30, 2027.

Every MCAT total score from 472 to 528 and every section score from 118 to 132, from AAMC's percentile table in effect May 1, 2026 to April 30, 2027, based on 305,494 exam results from the 2023, 2024 and 2025 testing years.

Method

  1. Your score is looked up in AAMC's table. Nothing is interpolated: every score has its own published rank.
  2. A percentile rank is the percentage of scores in the cohort equal to or less than yours. A 500 total is the 48th; a 510 is the 79th.
  3. Enter all four section scores and the tool adds them for your total, then looks the total up in the total table.
  4. AAMC prints the lowest ranks as <1; we keep that wording rather than inventing a decimal.
