I have been looking for a resource that lists the average board score for various specialties without any luck. Any suggestions? Thanks.
You might consider contacting your administration for some useful data. (The data will be, of course, specific to your school and subject to the usual caveats about generalizability.) For example, the University of North Carolina keeps similar data on their students:
Specialty, Mean USMLE Step 1 (No. Students Matched)
General Surg, 213 (10)
Ortho, 229 (6)
Rads/Rad-Onc, 232 (6)
Neurosurg/ENT/Uro, 232 (6)
Anesthesia, 210 (7)
Emergency, 221 (7)
Family Med, 214 (15)
Internal Med, 223 (22)
Peds, 220 (21)
Psych, 216 (9)
Ob/Gyn, 216 (17)
(The data above apply to the UNC Class of 2002.)
