I think the time frame is the same for USMLE step I. The scores are released in blocks organized by days of the week; Saturday-Friday. The scores are released 3 Wednesdays from the Wednesday in the middle of your score block. So If you took it on a saturday, the score comes out three weeks from the following wednesday and if you take it on a friday it comes out 3 weeks from the previous wednesday.

For instance, everyone who is taking it during this week, from Saturday 7/31 to Friday 8/6, will get their scores Wednesday 8/25, three weeks from today.

Everyone taking it between 8/7 and 8/13 will get their score 9/1

This was how Step I scores were released, and I think it's the same for Step II

three weeks is pretty accurate. I took mine on July 15th and got it back today. Email went out at 9:30ish central time and that had a link to the nbme site to check your score.

Good luck!

I took the USMLE on 7/17 but I didn't get my score today, so it looks like I missed the cutoff. I suppose my score will be available next Wed.

I took mine on 7/17 also and, very sadly, didn't get my score either. I was really hopeing today would be the day. Hopefully next week.

spot on. I took my test on a Saturday, will have to wait 4 Wednesdays (at least) for my score to come out. Should've took it a day earlier on FRIDAY and save myself another miserable week waiting. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO took my test on July 17th btw hopefully will get it aug 11th

But once you get your score, you still have to request to have it sent to ERAS if you intend to Match in 2011. Am I right?

How long does that part of the process take?
