Meritropolis by Joel Ohman matches your description.

(Google search - site:www.goodreads.com "dystopian" "low scores" "highest score")

"The year is AE3, 3 years after the Event. Within the walls of Meritropolis, 50,000 inhabitants live in fear, ruled by the brutal System that assigns each citizen a merit score that dictates whether they live or die. Those with the highest scores thrive, while those with the lowest are subject to the most unforgiving punishment--to be thrust outside the city gates, thrown to the terrifying hybrid creatures that exist beyond."

Some Goodreads reviewers say, "...a dystopian society where a person’s worth to society is based on a predetermined numerical score. It is this score that determines if a person lives or dies as a means of population control." | "... the poor, weak and handicapped are expelled into the wild where mutant beasts hunt." | "A young man with one of the highest scores believes that all people have value and decides to go to war with the System."
