Hey Everybody,

I apologize if this has been addressed before; I ran a quick search and couldn't find an answer.

What is the difference between the NBME exams (eg -- NBME 19) and the CBSE? Is one more representative of Step 1?

Also, I can't seem to find which NBME exams are available through the NBME website. I was going to take one or two before I take Step in May. Can all of the exams be download directly through the NBME website? I don't have an account yet and the information on the homepage is pretty sparse.

Thanks!
