Science ATAR cutoffs in Queensland
39 science courses at 8 institutions in Queensland, from 97.65 down to 53.45. Double degrees are included. Cutoffs are the lowest selection rank offered a place in QTAC's semester 1, 2026 offers.
A selection rank includes adjustment points, so some students got in with a lower ATAR. Cutoffs move every year, so treat them as a guide and check each course's prerequisites before you put it in your preferences.
