For those who take the computerized exam, applicants must score a minimum of 25 in each section, with a total score of at least 250. For the paper-based version, the minimum score is 60 in each section, with a total of at least 600. Applicants who score below these minimums cannot be considered for admission and should retake the test before submitting an application.
