Is 507 a Good MCAT Score?
507
71st
percentile
A 507 is above the test-taker average.
A 507 meets or exceeds the published MCAT class-profile score at 43 of 150 schools with comparable data: 7 US MD programs, 34 US DO programs, and 2 Canadian programs. These figures describe classes or accepted applicants, not admission requirements or your chance of acceptance.

How a 507 splits across the four sections
A 507 is at the 71st percentile on the current AAMC table. A percentile is the share of test takers who scored the same or lower, so it compares you with other test takers, not with the students a school admits.
An even 506 is two 126s and two 127s, and an even 509 is three 127s and a 128, so balanced sections here run from 126 to 128. That spans the 54th percentile (Psych/Soc 126) to the 90th (CARS 128), and every section at 126 or higher meets the minimums in our school data except in CARS, where Alberta and Calgary ask non-Alberta applicants for 128. An uneven split can hide a low section: a 508 with one section at 122 means the other three average about 128.7. As a next step, find your lowest section and compare it with your target schools' section rules.
All MCAT results from the 2023, 2024 and 2025 testing years (N = 305,494). In effect May 1, 2026 to April 30, 2027. AAMC, Summary of MCAT Total and Section ScoresUse plus and minus to move a point from one section to another. The total stays at 507.
Balanced
1 point between your lowest and highest section
An even 507 splits about 127 / 126 / 127 / 127 across Chem/Phys, CARS, Bio/Biochem, and Psych/Soc. On the current AAMC table, those sections range from the 65th to the 77th percentile.
CARS is 1 point below your highest section, at the 74th percentile.
Does an uneven score hurt you?- More on CARS 126
A CARS 126 is at the 74th percentile, 1.4 points above the section mean. It meets Western's 126 outside designated pathways and matches the CARS 126 that Memorial gives out-of-province applicants as advisory guidance, not a requirement. It is still 2 points below the CARS 128 that Alberta and Calgary require of non-Alberta applicants. At this score you read efficiently and miss mostly on close calls between two plausible answers.
- More on Chem/Phys 127
A 127 in Chem/Phys is at the 77th percentile, so 77 percent of test takers scored the same or lower. It is 2.1 points above the 124.9 mean and meets every section minimum in our school data. The same 127 is at the 84th percentile in CARS and the 65th in Psych/Soc, so compare sections by percentile rank. This score usually signals that you can apply chemical and physical principles to biological systems under time pressure, not just recall them.
- More on Bio/Biochem 127
Bio/Biochem 127 is at the 75th percentile, so three quarters of test takers scored the same or lower. It is 1.9 points above the 125.1 mean and meets every section minimum in our school data, clearing Western's 126 outside designated pathways, the highest Bio/Biochem rule, by a point. A 127 in this section signals that you can apply biology and biochemistry to new experiments, not just recall them.
- More on Psych/Soc 127
Psych/Soc 127 is at the 65th percentile, 1.1 points above the section mean. It meets every section minimum in our school data. It ranks lower than a 127 in CARS (84th) or Chem/Phys (77th), so here it is solid rather than a standout compared with other test takers. It signals reliable recall of psychology and sociology terms and good use of study data.
In this split, CARS is 126, at the 74th percentile; CARS needs no outside science knowledge, and WizePrep posts a free practice passage each week. Try this week's free CARS passage
Your CARS score of 126 is at or above 7 of the 9 published Canadian CARS minimums in our data. Several apply only to some applicants, such as the 128 Alberta and Calgary ask of non-Alberta applicants.

What to do with a 507
Should you retake a 507?
Compare your total and section scores with your target schools before deciding. A retake may help if it addresses a specific requirement or a consistent gap from practice results. Consider preparation time, score validity, and the possibility of a lower result; a higher total alone does not guarantee admission.
