KPSS Score Calculator 2026
Enter your General Ability and General Culture nets to instantly see your estimated KPSS score for bachelor's (P3), associate (P93) and secondary education (P94).
As of May 14, 2026, this tool estimates the active KPSS placement score types P3, P93 and P94.
Every 4 wrong answers deduct 1 correct answer. You do not need to enter blank answers separately.
How is the KPSS score calculated?
In the KPSS, a net is first found for each test: one quarter of the wrong answers is subtracted from the correct answers. So 4 wrong answers cancel 1 correct answer, and blank questions do not affect the net.
For P3, P93 and P94, the General Ability and General Culture tests count equally (50% and 50%). ÖSYM determines the final score from a standard score calculated with the mean and standard deviation of all candidates. That is why the tool gives an estimated result.
KPSS score types: P3, P93 and P94
| Score type | For whom | Which tests | Where it is used |
|---|---|---|---|
| P3 | Bachelor's degree graduates | General Ability 50% + General Culture 50% | Bachelor's-level positions such as civil servant, data entry and control officer (VHKİ) and court clerk |
| P93 | Associate degree graduates | General Ability 50% + General Culture 50% | Public positions open to associate degree graduates |
| P94 | High school (secondary education) graduates | General Ability 50% + General Culture 50% | Public positions open to high school graduates |
Example calculation
A candidate with 40 correct and 12 wrong answers in General Ability has a net of 40 - (12 / 4) = 37. With 36 correct and 12 wrong answers in General Culture, the net is 33. Since both tests have equal weight, the weighted net is 35. With these nets, our tool estimates about 75 points for P3.

How is the KPSS score calculated?
For each test, the net is found by subtracting one quarter of the wrong answers from the correct answers. In P3, P93 and P94, the General Ability and General Culture nets turn into a score with equal weight. ÖSYM determines the final score with the standard score method.
How many wrong answers cancel a correct answer in the KPSS?
4 wrong answers cancel 1 correct answer. Blank questions do not affect the net.
What is the difference between P3, P93 and P94?
P3 is the score type for bachelor's degree graduates, P93 for associate degree graduates and P94 for high school (secondary education) graduates. All three consist of the General Ability and General Culture tests; candidates take the exam for their own education level.
How many points does a given KPSS net bring?
The same net does not bring the same score every year; the score depends on the average of the candidates taking the exam that year. Our tool gives an estimated score based on your nets.
Is the calculated score final?
No. The result is an estimate; factors such as cancelled questions and the candidate average can change the final score. The ÖSYM result document is the basis for the final score.
How many years is a KPSS score valid?
KPSS scores are generally valid for 2 years. Check that year's ÖSYM guide for the exact period.
Can teacher candidates use this tool?
As of 13 July 2025, teacher candidates moved to the MEB-AGS and ÖABT structure. This tool does not calculate teaching scores.
This tool gives an estimated result; it does not exactly reproduce ÖSYM's standard score, cancelled-question and candidate-average calculations. The final score announced by ÖSYM is the basis for placement.
