Mercer University has an IB average score of 35 out of 45 for admitted students who submit IB scores. It's important to note that many admitted students do not provide IB scores, so this average specifically reflects those who do. The score of 35 suggests a competitive standard among this subset of applicants.
Mercer University reports an IB score range with a 25th percentile of 33 and a 75th percentile of 37. It’s important to note that being within this range does not guarantee admission. Applicants on the higher end of the range, particularly those scoring closer to 37, are in a stronger position, while those at the lower end around 33 will need to strengthen their applications with better grades, essays, awards, and extracurricular activities.
Mercer University does not explicitly require or recommend specific IB subjects, but our recommended courses include higher-level (HL) Biology, Chemistry, and Psychology, alongside standard-level (SL) Math AA and English B. The recommendations align with the college's academic profile, which emphasizes a strong foundation in science and mathematics for prospective nursing students.
