Science ATAR cutoffs in Victoria

49 science courses at 7 institutions in Victoria, from 99.85 down to 33.55. Double degrees are included. Cutoffs are the lowest selection rank offered a place in VTAC's December 2025 round.

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.

Every science course, highest first
