Wow! There are so many overachievers here on this forum. All the scores posted above are the tops. Just goes to show you that the advice here in the forums is legit. I used advice I found here, and feel like that alone helped in raising my score a bunch. I found out about UW from the forum here about 3 weeks before my exam and feel like that advice alone raised my score 8-10 points. Anyway, just got my score back today.

MCAT- 27
NBME free practice questions (2.5 weeks out)- 83% correct
NBME test 4 (two weeks out)- 232
NBME test 3 (one week out)- 242
UW (100% completed)- 70%
Kaplan (35% completed)- 68%
What I was hoping for- 235
Step 1 score- 248

Congrats to all those who finished and good luck to all those taking the exam.

on a side note, I'm kind of pissed that our dean's office/registrar didn't so much as email/page any of the MS3's to let us know that they had received our scores, and many in our class are unaware that scores were released today. Thanks a lot. :thumbdown:

From the scores above it appears that 234 gets you a 98 and >235 gets you a 99. I think the 2 digit score is a little worthless. >=75 is passing. That's all you need to know.

Wow the SDN folks scored high! (at least those who decided to post their scores) Here's the break down.

2 weeks in: NBME form 2: 202

MCAT 27

COMLEX: 586/88
USMLE: 230/96

This was way beyond my expectations! I was thinking I only got like a 215 or so. Congrats to all, now it's time for beers (or other fine alcoholic beverages)!!! :thumbup:

You wait for the USPS to deliver it to your mailbox. There are like 58.32 threads here complaining that we can't check online (only if the report's been sent). Some school's will tell you the score, some won't.

Interesting that the scores numerical appear lower this year than in recent years, did anyone catch a national average or standard deviation for this year? A lower three digit score resulted in a 99 2 digit score than in past years...(I think 2 digits are better for comparison between years in terms of the way they figure it out.)

Well I am the low end of the sdn step scores but I will post anyways

Studied for 3+ weeks
USMLE World 70s (started out in the mid 60s and ended in the mid 70s)
NBME 3 236 (taken 10 days out)
Free 150 Q 89% (taken 3 days out)

Step 1 240
My goal was 240+ so I guess I met it but I feel like I underpreformed since I only increased 4 points from NBME with 10 additional days of studying.

Happy happy!

USMLEWorld: 79% (63% complete, I got sick of doing them)
NBME 1: 246 (2.5 weeks before)
Free 150 Q's: 268 (1 week before)

Step 1: 269

never posted here, although ive been reading since college. my school gave me my score today.

mcat-37

usmle and kaplan averages were around 67-70 percent (and actually did worse close to the test

nbme form 4-232 (ten days before)

step 1- 250 (unless my school is playing some cruel joke)

i just wanted a 230, so this blew my mind. i am mainly contributing now because i want to make clear that when i walked out of the test i was convinced i bombed it. i guessed so many times its ridiculous. but then i wound up doing well so if youve taken it and feel horrible, DONT WORRY, curves are a wonderful thing, you never know. plus my step prep grades werent anything great, so dont stress overly about those either.

Was running 60%-ish on Qbank, which predicted a sub-200 score. NBME predicted 220s. USMLE practice test predicted 240. MCAT 36.

Step 1 230

I am neither happy nor sad.

Here's my story:
3.18 GPA, 32 MCAT, rejected from every allopathic school 2 years in a row, finally got into one on my third try. Slacked off first year, studied a lot second year, only honored one course. I didn't go to class at all during second year to concentrate on boards material. It payed off.

NBME 1 (2 months out): 228
NBME 3 (3 weeks out): 232
NBME 4 (1 week out): 245
Free 150: 91%

Studied for 3 weeks using the usual stuff (First Aid, old HY c&m, RR path, Robbins Q book, BRS phys).

Goal: 240

Actual: 259

I can't believe it! :D Actually, I won't believe it until I get it in the mail. I had no business getting a score like that. There was definitely some luck involved.

free exam: 67% 1 week before real exam
100% QBank 65%
100% USMLEworld 70%

Step 1 : 222 (no idea what the 2 digit score is)

People here will probably think I'm crazy when I say I'm happy with my score, but I seriously seriously seriously thought I failed this exam. Proof: i still have ALL my Step 1 review materials , i.e. haven't sold a single book.
Not to mention I'm a pretty mediocre student, so anything over the national average (even brushingly so), I'm darn happy. I had lobster tonight!!
