GAMSAT & GPA score calculator
Work out your weighted GAMSAT and your GEMSAS weighted GPA the way schools actually calculate them — then see, honestly, roughly where that puts you.
GAMSAT section scores
Scaled, roughly 50–90
GPA by year
On the 7-point scale
Weighted overall GAMSAT
65.0/ 100
Some schools use the unweighted mean instead: 64.3
GEMSAS weighted GPA
6.15/ 7.0
The most recent year counts most — final year is weighted triple.
Where you'd roughly stand
Indicative only · not cutoffsYou're in a workable middle band. Lifting whichever of GAMSAT or GPA has the most headroom would push you toward the more competitive range at more schools — and Section III, weighted double, usually moves the GAMSAT fastest.
Zones are illustrative. Real entry combines GAMSAT, GPA, interview and the year's applicant pool — and differs at every school.
How these numbers are used
Most graduate-entry medical programs in Australia consider your weighted GAMSAT and your GEMSAS weighted GPAtogether, then use the combination — alongside an interview — to make offers. Because Section III is doubled in the GAMSAT and the most recent year is tripled in the GPA, those two levers move your standing the most.
We deliberately don't publish exact cut-offs. They shift every year with the applicant pool, vary by school, and combine with factors a calculator can't see. Treat the band above as a rough orientation, not a verdict.
How is the GAMSAT scored?
The GAMSAT reports a score for each of the three sections on a scale that runs roughly from the low 40s to the mid 80s. Your overall scoreis a weighted average in which Section III counts double: Overall = (S1 + S2 + 2×S3) ÷ 4 — that's the number ACER prints on your results. A few universities recompute an unweighted average for their own ranking (Melbourne, UQ and Notre Dame among them), and Sydney considers each section separately. Raw marks are converted to scaled scores by ACER through a process that adjusts for the difficulty of each sitting, so the same percentage correct can map to slightly different scaled scores from one exam to the next.
How does GEMSAS weight your GPA?
For most graduate-entry programs in the GEMSAS consortium, your GPA is reported on a 7.0 scale and the three most recent full-time years are weighted 1 : 2 : 3 — your most recent year counts the most, and your earliest of the three counts the least. So a weighted GPA is (1·Y₃₋ₗₐₛₜ + 2·Y₂₋ₗₐₛₜ + 3·Yₗₐₜₑₛₜ) ÷ 6. Eligibility rules, full-time load requirements and how prior degrees are treated vary, so always confirm against the official GEMSAS admissions guide.
What is a good GAMSAT score?
As a rough guide: an overall score around 55 is about average, the mid-60s are competitive for many medical programs, and 70+ sits near the top of the cohort. Because entry is competitive and cut-offs move year to year, treat any number as a target to train toward — not a guarantee.
