Title: SJT score not good enough?
Post by: hrobertson20 on July 11, 2020, 11:11:51 am

Hi! Although my total score was pretty good (over 3000), my final score for the SJT was only 592? My goal is to get into Monash Uni and I was wondering if that score is too low/whether they place a lot of emphasis on the SJT. Thanks in advance :)

I dont have an answer for you, just wanted to say that I'm going through the exact same thing right now, my score is 3090 but my SJ is like 598 :/

I'm in a similar spot. I think it's quite difficult to know as very few unis post the scores and sections they look at for the UCAT.
Having said that SJT is often just treated as a threshold - if you do well enough I don't think much emphasis is put on the actual score.
Also, just an FYI the mean score for the 2019 UCAT cohort was 592 for SJT and the top score was only 759.
