LSAT = What GRE/MCAT Score?

Post by gogators » Sun Jan 11, 2009 8:29 pm

So I saw on another thread that MENSA has a way of figuring out what an equal LSAT score to an IQ test is so I was wondering if anyone knew what an equivalent GRE/MCAT/ whatever is to say a 170 LSAT score. Obviously the material is entirely different and you study differently, but I have a feeling that SOMEONE has either a fact or opinion about the matter.

39-40 out of 45 is the bottom of the 99th percentile for the MCAT.

The simplistic way would be just looking up the percentile scales for each score to find what scores are equivalent.

But obviously the materials/skills tested are VERY different.

even though they're completely different tests, it's still interesting to check up...

for the GREs, 92 percentile and up for the quantitative section is an 800, while 98 on the verbal reasoning is 720 and 99 is 740+

and for the GMATs, 98 percentile is 740 and 99 is 750+

OP, there's always google...

Ya, but I'd rather ask a group of extremely smart individuals than random people's websites over google any day.

MCAT measures memorization, not intelligence.

TITCR. If you're relatively bright, you can pick up an LSAT without studying and expect to get half the questions right at worst. If you've never studied for the MCAT, you will die.

Which would probably explain why I did significantly better on the MCAT than the LSAT. :lol:
