    How do you actually calculate UMAT scores? (I'm very new to UMAT)

    Hi everyone!

    I have looked on this website and can't seem to find the answers to the question. I'm not talking about percentiles...I think I'm talking about the raw scores?

    For instance if a person said they got 30 q's right in the first section, 25 in the next and 20 in last. How do you calculate the scores?

    What is the point system? Is it 2 points per question you get right?

    I don't get it.

    Thanks in advance.

    As I said in the other thread, ACER doesn't tell us how they mark the papers. For instance, I got a raw score of 103 in section 3, which can't really explained in the traditional sense. From what I've heard, Acer has a few 'trial' questions that they use to test whether they can use if the future UMATs, and they take this into account when marking. As I said, really vague..

    Hope I helped this time :P
