Wat is wrong with the scoring scale people.
aome frends took the exam in april:-

one guy on 17th april=324/400=score=90!
on 21 april=316/400=88!
on 27 april=349/400=91

in may:-
5th may=324/400=86!!!!!
15th may=294/400=84
and all of them have their score 15-20 points above the national average mean!

And beach buff has posted his score and hez got a 337/400=88!!!!!!!!!!!
i mean wat is happening people!! the scale was so much better in april and last year too.have they recaliberated it or something.
its pathetic really!!!I AM SCARED.

From what I've read on SDN:

Some questions are worth more than others so one person can answer the same number of questions correctly and still do better than another person.

Composite scores are calculated based on how you compare to other test takers within a given time frame. Just bad luck if one person takes it when a bunch of other smart people are taking it I suppose.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

i agree
my split was
anatomy 89
Biochem/physio 87
micro path 86
DA 83
and my composite was 92
when i recalled my paper i think i did many tough q's right but did very stupid silly mistakes
so i think its tough q which are deciding curve at this point else i would have scored less 😡
