The A1C test measures your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. The results are reported as a percentage. Here are the standard ranges:
- Normal: Below 5.7%
- Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
- Diabetes: 6.5% or above
For most people with diabetes, the target A1C level is less than 7%, but your doctor may set a different goal based on your individual health needs.
