How to interpret university cut-off scores
Before comparing degrees and universities, it's helpful to understand what a cut-off score means, why it changes every year, and how to use it to plan your admission.
What are cutoff marks?
The cut-off score is the indicative grade of the last student admitted to a degree program. It serves as a reference for knowing what grade you might need to gain admission.
Why do they change every year?
They depend on the demand for the degree, the number of places available, and the applicants' grades. That's why they can go up or down from one year to another.
How to use this information?
Use the search tool to compare degrees, universities, and cities. Then calculate the grade you need and which PCE subjects can help you improve it.

Common questions about cut-off scores
Does the cut-off score guarantee that I will get into a degree program?
No. It's a reference from the previous admissions process. It can give you an idea, but it doesn't guarantee admission, as demand, available places, and applicant scores change every year.
What grade do I need to study Medicine, Engineering, or Law?
It depends on the university, the autonomous community, and the demand for the degree. Degrees like Medicine often have very high entry requirements, so it's important to prepare an admissions strategy with enough leeway.
Can the PCE exams help me improve my admission score?
Yes. For many international students, the PCE exams help improve their admission score, especially when choosing subjects that are weighted for the degree and the destination university.
Should I choose my degree program based solely on the cut-off score?
No. The cut-off score is important, but you should also consider the curriculum, the city, the language of instruction, the entry requirements, career prospects, and your actual chances of admission.
