I don't have anything to report, but can you folks please start sharing your NBME/QBank, etc. etc. plus real deal scores so we can see the comparisons!
Thanks!
Thanks!
That's a great score. From what I've been told, that score won't keep you out of the running for any EM residency.
Actual score 230, not psyched at all, felt real crappy... but hey there's step2.
Yeah, you're probably gonna have to scramble a FP spot in Alaska w/that score.
anyone with any permutation of the word "bone" in their name is an ortho freak.
I was really going with urology

Biggest laugh of the night: Pharm - very high performance (though not starred); I didn't study for this at all and answered questions on gut feelings and "hey, this drug sounds like that one from that TV ad!"
Thanks, Pharm companies, part of this 251 belongs to you.

hello every1,
PRAISE THE LORD
first of all i would like to thank my Heavenly Father JESUS CHRIST for enabling me to take this exam last month
got my scores just few hrs bac online
201/82
this was my 2nd attempt. had flunked first time very badly and according to first aid survey had 0% chance of clearing the exam next time for repeat takers
had taken two nbmes' this time and had flunked both
decided to take the exam not on my strenghth but HIS STRENGTH.REMEMBERED ALL HIS previous miracles and wonders for me.
Gods' Grace and Power was with me which i could feel throughout my exam..
I could feel THE HOLY SPIRIT guiding me throughout my exam
i cant hide His love and wonders therefore declaring it to you all
books used brs path,physio,beh science,usmle road map pharma,kaplan pharma,kaplan physio,lange immuno(excellent),flash cards for pharma ,micro, an biochem(bits)
had purchased almost all books available at amazon
i think this was a mistake
another mistake was writing all uw,kaplanqbook an usmle rx notes which in the end i could never read and was quite frustating
my exam was path 85% statistics and beh science 5% each and rest subjects the rem
i found usmle rx to be quite helpful for my exam..
thanks to all sp jeebus and tsaus
gl for every1
open for any question
thanks an have a nice day
and 1 more word of advice
BE HONEST TO THYSELF AND TRUST THE LORD JESUS CHRIST

I'm an avid blasphemer, and I got a 270. There goes your Jesus theory

Why must anyone suffer over that?
The poster clearly stated she/he was thanking Jesus for "enabling me"
Who's suffering? I got laughs from MtMed.
It doesn't bother me at all. I have no problem with people believing in fairy tales.
I don't think that Jesus had any role in the OPs success whatsoever...not even "enabling." In fact, I dont' think that Jesus ever existed (for precisely the same reason that I don't think mythras, dionysis, or apollo ever existed).
well i believe that sdn is a free public support forum where any 1 cant post their exp without blasphemous/malingering remarks or offenses at some1s religion or creating any controversy..so i posted my exp..
i never knew some osamas /taliban etc existed here also
what is going on here?
between smalley and naturalinstinct, this thread has turned into a confusing pseudoblasphemic orgy of double negatives, E-isms, and other random **** that i just can't understand.
for future reference, please just post:
Step 1 score
nbme scores where applicable, and dates relative to step 1
UW "
kaplan "
and any other relevant info i may have forgotten
That is quite disrespectful, but hey, freedom of speech go at it
I am sure you believe a few, you probably believe you will be alive tomorrow morning - but until that moment comes that is a fairy tale.
Well, good for you, no need to shun the OP for her/him believing Jesus does exist.
If you were such a proponent of freedom of speech, you wouldn't criticize me for boldly voicing my opinion or implicitly threatening me with a terms of service violation.
Tomorrow will be 19 days after my exam.... Think there's any chance at all that mine will be released? I really hope so - I need the results to finally put this experience behind me!!

Q: Is this score competitive for urology / orthopedics??
Hello guys, I finally got my Step 1 scores today on 26th day after taking my test. I got a 247 (99). Stuck with First Aid and UsmleWorld as only sources no matter what people said. Listened to Goljan religiously. All the great work payed off. Thanks to SDN and all people who contribute here !!
Q: Is this score competitive for urology / orthopedics??
Apparently his score report said that this is the highest score nationally.
Ya big baby! Post your score!wow, i'm finally posting on this thread . . . weird thats its all finally over
because people know me on here, i will not post my score. but i will say that i blew the mean away, and thats all that was important to me.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE ON HERE FOR SUPPORT, ADVICE, AND EVERYTHING ELSE
SDN was my primary source, and if anyone is uneasy about this forum, be certain that people on here know what they are talking about . . . well, not everyone, but for the most part
thanks everyone. and congrats to all
Did you see it? It sounds a bit uncharacteristic of the USMLE people, who seem to like to keep things as opaque as possible. If true, it's a very interesting piece of info for them to provide and I'm sure the admissions office will use it as a selling point in the coming year.
My Step 2CS report, for instance, didn't even give me a breakdown because it is their policy not to report how you did in the subareas unless you failed. Basically it was one word: "PASS"
