Can anyone compare their comquest scores to their actual score that took the test last yr., or what are people averaging on comquest. Ty

Every student will prob have some variation but majority of people feel that if you get a 66% on COMquest then you will get a lower score on the real exam.

Getting 80% without looking at ans and taking real simulated tests would probably mean you will pass.

seriously? This does not seem accurate. I am averaging around 66% myself, and there is no way I am anywhere near failing. I did very well on Level 1, feeling even more confident for level 2, and have been getting ~70% on UWorld (which correlates to a high score according to numerous sources.) Ill let you guys know how I do on the real thing, but 80% seems way too high to "probably pass."

Makes me feel better. Although, I've not really done much of UW since shelf exams as that's what I used to study. I did do an Assessment and passed it, totally different type of Q's I will say ... 1st half had me going :scared: .... hit my stride on the 2nd part of the test ... 👍

I agree that radiodoc is way off. I actually scored a 67% the first time around on COMQuest and got well above average on the real thing. Besides their averages for all subscribers was around 66% so that probably correlates with a passing score, if not average, on the real thing.

I agree as well. Not only that but COMQUEST will alter a user's percentage if they retest and subsequently get an answer correct that they initially got incorrect. Thus, someone who goes back through the question banks will artificially elevate their average and the average of all users...My guess is the true first time average is closer to 58-60%

Definitely true. I did COMQuest until my average said 100%.
