What Is a Good Bocconi Test Score? Benchmarks and Targets for 2026
Short answer: A "good" Bocconi Test score in 2026 is generally above 75/100, with competitive programs like BIEF and BEMACS typically requiring 80+. The exact cutoff varies year to year and depends on the rest of your application.
How the Bocconi Test is scored
The test is scored on a 0–100 scale. Correct answers add points, wrong answers slightly penalize you, and unanswered questions count as zero. The composite admission score combines your test result with your high-school GPA, weighted by program.
Realistic score targets by program
- BIEF, BIEM (Economics, Management): aim for 75–85. Top admits often hit 85+.
- BESS (Economic and Social Sciences): aim for 70–80.
- BEMACS (Math & Computer Science): aim for 80–90 — competition is intense.
- BIG, BIEMF, World Bachelor in Business: aim for 80+ and a strong academic record.
What "good" really means
Bocconi does not publish hard cutoffs. Admission is comparative: your score is ranked against the cohort applying in the same session. A 78 in a weak session may admit; a 78 in a competitive January round may not. The safest target is whatever score puts you comfortably above last year's median admit for your program.
How to set your target score
- Take a full diagnostic test under real conditions.
- Compare your raw score to the band for your program (above).
- Add 5–10 points as a safety margin to absorb test-day variance.
- Build your study plan to close that gap, section by section.
Bottom line
A good Bocconi Test score is one that ranks you above the cohort's median admit — usually 75+ for most programs and 80+ for the most selective. Practice with full-length simulations to know exactly where you stand before exam day.
