Can someone explain to me how the NBME score translate into percentile? I was looking up online and couldn't figure it out. I took my shelf last week and am worried that I didn't pass.
For example, my school requires 15% percentile to pass. The last NBME I took:
Number of questions wrong: 19 out of 50
Assessment score: 17/20
Approximate Subject Examination Score: 62
I initially thought that the "Approximate subject examination score" was the percentile and was really happy but I'm starting to think that I misinterpreted that.
Thanks!
