UMU Calculadora EBAU (Nota de Acceso y Admisión)
Use this tool to estimate your UMU (Universidad de Murcia) admission score out of 14 points based on your Bachillerato mark, EBAU core score, and specific-subject ponderaciones.
Specific phase subjects (up to 4)
Enter your subject marks. The calculator automatically picks the best two weighted contributions (0.1 or 0.2) for your final admission score.
What is the UMU calculadora EBAU?
The UMU calculadora EBAU is a quick simulator to estimate your university admission score for degrees at the Universidad de Murcia. In Spain, many students know their subject marks but still struggle to predict whether they can reach a competitive nota de corte. This calculator solves that by applying the standard access formula and then adding your best weighted specific subjects.
It is especially useful when you are deciding:
- Which specific-phase exams are most strategic for your target degree.
- Whether a remark request could materially improve your final rank.
- If your current projected score is above, near, or below last year’s cutoff.
How the EBAU formula works at a glance
1) Nota de Acceso (up to 10)
Your access grade combines high school and core EBAU performance:
Nota de Acceso = 0.6 × NMB + 0.4 × CFG
- NMB: average Bachillerato mark (0 to 10).
- CFG: general/core EBAU phase score (0 to 10).
2) Nota de Admisión (up to 14)
For programs with high demand, universities also add the best two weighted specific subjects:
Nota de Admisión = Nota de Acceso + (a × M1) + (b × M2)
- M1 / M2: your best specific-subject marks.
- a / b: ponderación (commonly 0.1 or 0.2 depending on degree and subject).
This page automatically selects the two largest contributions so you do not need to test combinations manually.
Why ponderaciones matter so much
Many students focus only on raw exam marks, but the weight is often decisive. A grade of 8.0 with a 0.2 coefficient contributes 1.6 points, while a 9.0 with a 0.1 coefficient contributes only 0.9 points. That means a lower raw score can still be more valuable if the subject is strongly weighted for your intended degree.
Before submitting your final preinscripción choices, always verify current ponderaciones for each UMU degree path and campus option.
Step-by-step: using this calculator correctly
- Enter your Bachillerato average exactly as recorded.
- Enter your general EBAU score from the official results.
- For each specific subject, input your mark and choose the correct coefficient (0.1 or 0.2).
- Click Calculate UMU Score.
- Review both your Nota de Acceso and Nota de Admisión.

Example simulation
Suppose your data are:
- NMB = 8.40
- CFG = 7.90
- Math II = 8.5 (0.2), Physics = 7.8 (0.2), Chemistry = 9.2 (0.1)
Your access score is 0.6×8.4 + 0.4×7.9 = 8.20. Specific contributions are:
- Math II: 1.70
- Physics: 1.56
- Chemistry: 0.92
The best two are 1.70 and 1.56, so your final admission estimate is 11.46.
Common mistakes students make
Using outdated ponderaciones
Weight tables can change by degree and year. Always confirm the latest official UMU documentation.
Confusing access score with admission score
The score out of 10 (access) is not always enough for high-demand programs. Many cutoffs compare candidates on the full score out of 14.
Entering too many weighted subjects manually
Only the best two weighted contributions usually count in the final admission sum. This tool automatically handles that selection.
Practical strategy to improve your final score
- Prioritize specific subjects weighted 0.2 for your desired degree.
- Simulate target scenarios: “What score do I need to exceed last year’s cutoff by 0.2?”
- Consider applying to multiple related degrees with different cutoff levels.
- Track first allocation and waiting-list movement, not just the initial published number.
Quick FAQ
Is this an official UMU tool?
No. It is an independent simulator designed for planning and estimation.
Can the final real score differ?
Yes. Official results depend on validated records, specific call details, and published institutional criteria.
Should I include all specific subjects?
You can enter several, but the calculator will only use the two best weighted contributions for the final total.
Final reminder
The UMU calculadora EBAU helps you make smarter application decisions with less uncertainty. Use it early, compare multiple degree options, and cross-check current ponderaciones and official deadlines. A small difference in weighted subjects can completely change your admission outcome.
