UCAT Score Calculator 2026 - Convert Raw Marks to Scaled Scores Out of 2700

How do I use the UCAT Score Calculator 2026?

Enter your raw marks from each section into the calculator above. For Verbal Reasoning enter a number from 0 to 44, for Decision Making 0 to 35, for Quantitative Reasoning 0 to 36, and for Situational Judgement 0 to 69. Your scaled score out of 2700, national percentile and estimated SJT band all appear instantly. The calculator works with scores from any UCAT practice platform including MyUCAT, Medify and Passmedicine, so you can track your progress throughout your preparation.

Why is the UCAT scored out of 2700 and not 3600?

The UCAT changed format in 2025. Abstract Reasoning was removed, leaving three cognitive subtests: Verbal Reasoning, Decision Making and Quantitative Reasoning. Each is scored from 300 to 900, giving a new maximum total of 2700 instead of the old 3600. The Situational Judgement Test is still included but scored separately in Bands 1 to 4 and is not part of the 2700 total. This calculator is fully updated for the 2026 UCAT exam and 2027 university entry.

What is the difference between a UCAT Score Converter and a UCAT Conversion Table?

The interactive UCAT Score Calculator on this page converts your raw marks to a precise scaled score using section-by-section lookup data. The UCAT Score Conversion Table lower on this page gives a quick visual estimate if you prefer to look up your marks manually. Both are updated for the 2026 UCAT scoring system out of 2700. A third tool - the UCAT Score Converter - translates your 2026 score to the old 3600 scale so you can compare it against historic university cut-off scores. All three are available on this page.

How do I calculate my UCAT raw score to scaled score?

Each UCAT section converts raw marks to a scaled score between 300 and 900. Raw marks are the number of questions you answered correctly. The conversion is not a simple percentage - the UCAT uses statistical equating to account for variations in question difficulty between test forms. This calculator applies lookup tables based on the official 2025 UCAT scoring distributions to give you the most accurate estimate. Enter your raw marks above and the scaled score for each section appears instantly alongside your total and percentile.

What is a good UCAT score in 2026?

Based on official 2025 UCAT Consortium data, here is how to interpret your total score out of 2700:

• 1871 to 1880: 50th percentile - average nationally

• 2041 to 2050: 75th percentile - above average

• 2211 to 2230: 90th percentile - top decile, competitive everywhere

• 2301 to 2330: 95th percentile - highly competitive

• 2451 and above: 99th percentile

A score of 2100 or above is sufficient for most UK medical schools. A score of 2220 or above places you in the top decile nationally. Scores of 2300 or above are competitive at high-demand schools including Bristol, Manchester, King's College London and Sheffield. After using this calculator, visit our UCAT cut-off scores guide to see exactly which universities your score is competitive for.

What UCAT percentile am I in?

Your UCAT percentile tells you what percentage of all test-takers you scored higher than, based on official 2025 UCAT Consortium data. A score of 1871 puts you at the 50th percentile. A score of 2091 puts you at the 80th percentile. A score of 2211 puts you at the 90th percentile. A score of 2451 or above puts you at the 99th percentile. The percentile calculator on this page calculates your rank automatically once you enter your raw scores. You can also use our full UCAT deciles guide for a complete national breakdown by score range.

How does the UCAT SJT Band Calculator work?

The Situational Judgement Test is scored separately from the three cognitive subtests and is not included in your 2700 total. The SJT Band Calculator on this page estimates your band from your raw SJT score out of 69. As a guide based on recent UCAT data: 80% or above typically gives Band 1, 65% to 79% Band 2, 50% to 64% Band 3, and below 50% Band 4. Note that SJT Band 4 results in automatic rejection at many UK medical schools including Manchester, Edinburgh, Barts, Aberdeen, Hull York, Keele, Leicester, Lincoln, Liverpool, Newcastle, Nottingham and Sunderland. Band 1 adds points at universities such as King's College London, Birmingham and Nottingham. Read our full SJT bands by university guide for the complete breakdown by school.
