Im very confused as to how everyone knows how to calculate their scores. Do I just add the percentage together??Somebody please help figure it  out. Also what score should i aim for to get a chance to be considered for say at UNSW???
I did an acer practice test and this is what i got;

Logic and Reasoning : 17/48 ( ik its extremely low) ---percentage 35
Understanding people: 41/44 ( i think this is good) --percentage 93
Non- verbal reasonning: 20/41 ( low again ) ---percentage 49

Total or overall : 35+93+49=177
Correct?
Also how do you calculate percentiles???

Thanksss

You can not calculate percentiles as those are dependent on how other people do on the exam. For example, if section one was very very tough your 17/48 may actually be considered a ‘good’ score and you could receive a high percentile if everyone else does terribly. It really just comes down to those around you. Also, the way ACER calculates your UMAT overall is very tight lipped.

I’ve heard however, that a 180/300 is roughly a 90th percentile while a 200/300 is a 100th percentile. ^this may not be accurate.

You’re pretty much guaranteed an interview anywhere you apply with a very good shot at gaining acceptance provided you don’t screw up.
