Sorry this probably sounds so stupid but can someone please explain how the HAT scores work? If the papers out of 40 how does your score end up higher than that? Or is it just a percentage?

Last year they changed the marking rubrics and it's now scored out of 90 instead of 40.

Thanks :smile: does it say anything about that on the website?
I wish they would upload the 2020 paper already

No problem! They haven't uploaded the 2020 marking scheme yet, unfortunately.

They have! It's under the 'How to Prepare' tab: https://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/applying-to-oxford/tests/hat
