Due to the extreme curve on nbmes, it seems like a careless error or two could mean the difference between 265 and 275. For those in the 270s, did you find your real deal was close? Lower?

It's a difference of a couple questions on the real exam too, which is why no one differentiates between those scores

Definitely, dude. I hear if you get a 260 you can't even expect a residency.
