What is the average marks needed to get in UMAT to get an interview.
Can you please put in sort of a % as that would be easier.
Um I also know that no one really knows this information for sure. But sort of like where do you think(education guess, not just guess) the mark needed is.

dude nobody knows exactly how ACER turns their raw raw raw scores into scores and finally into percentiles. It's a mystery! but check out the site in my sig tho. And ask there.

Hmm.. 180 is worth more than 230. I got something like 239-240 with a 172. But that should do it. On average + v.good EN/TER/OP/UAI/etc.

Hurri just said it up above -

ACER has it's own scaling system which takes into account question difficulty, both relative to others (questions) within the exam, and relative to those given the previous year (based on candidate performance on said question). However they have never released any information relating to their scaling procedures - you will never know how the marks you scored were conceived.
