Quantitative Ability Mini Test —
Score Yourself 

Once you've taken all four Quantitative Ability Mini-Tests under timed conditions, add up the total number of questions you answered correctly (out of 34). This is your raw score. Then determine your scaled Quantitative score and percentile rank using the table below.

[How to Interpret the Table]


    ..raw score | scaled score | percentile rank

      34 ---------- 800 --------- 99
      33 ---------- 790 --------- 98
      32 ---------- 780 --------- 96
      31 ---------- 760 --------- 94
      30 ---------- 740 --------- 92
      29 ---------- 720 --------- 89
      28 ---------- 700 --------- 85
      27 ---------- 670 --------- 81
      26 ---------- 640 --------- 77
      25 ---------- 610 --------- 72
      24 ---------- 590 --------- 67
      23 ---------- 570 --------- 61
      22 ---------- 540 --------- 55
      21 ---------- 510 --------- 48
      20 ---------- 490 --------- 41
      19 ---------- 470 --------- 35
      18 ---------- 450 --------- 30
      17 ---------- 430 --------- 25
      16 ---------- 400 --------- 21
      15 ---------- 370 --------- 17
      14 ---------- 360 --------- 14
      13 ---------- 350 --------- 11
      12 ---------- 330 --------- 8
      11 ---------- 310 --------- 6
      10 ---------- 280 --------- 4
      9 ----------- 250 --------- 2
      8 ----------- 220 --------- 1
      6-7 --------- 210 --------- 1
      0-5 --------- 200 --------- 0

How to Interpret the Table

  • Quantitative scaled scores are based on a 200-800 scale. (There's nothing magic about this number range; it's just GRE testing tradition.)
  • Percentile ranking (0% to 99%) shows how you performed relative to all others taking the GRE over a recent multi-year period. A percentile ranking of 60, for example, indicates that you scored higher than 60% of all other test takers (and lower than 40% of all other test takers). NOTE: Percentile rankings are not reported to the graduate schools.
  • One additional correct response makes the biggest percentile difference near the middle of the performance "curve" (because it's a typical bell curve).
  • If you missed 5 or fewer questions out of 34, expect to rank in the top decile (10%) in GRE Quantitative Ability.
  • If you responded correctly to 21 questions out of 34 questions, expect to rank near the 50th percentile in GRE Quantitative Ability.
