How UNSW uses your UCAT ANZ score
- Interviews are offered on your selection rank (ATAR plus adjustment factors) and UCAT ANZ overall score combined.
- You must reach at least the 50th percentile in UCAT ANZ to be considered for interview.
- The Situational Judgement score is not used.
- Offers are ranked on all three: academic rank, UCAT ANZ and interview. A high score in one area does not make up for a low score in another.
Good to know
- Only UCAT ANZ results from the year before entry count (2026 results for 2027 entry).
- Domestic applicants can gain up to 10 points from adjustment factor schemes.
What UCAT ANZ score should you aim for?
Universities do not set a single pass mark: they rank applicants against each other, so the score you need depends on the year and on how strong the other applicants are. For a competitive course, aiming for the top 10–20% of candidates is a sensible target.
In 2025, the top 20% of UCAT ANZ candidates scored about 2190 or more out of 2700, and the top 10% about 2310 or more. Use the score calculator to see where your practice scores sit.
