How many do you think you got wrong?

I was wondering, for those who have gotten your scores back already..how many questions (ballpark) did you think you got wrong coming out to the exam and then what was your actual score.

I think it may help calm some nerves for people post test if they have some sort of idea of what to expect walking out.

Did you just take your test? How many do you think you got wrong? More than a few?

No my test is in a few weeks. I just want to know if the % wrong on NBME's correlates to how you do on the real test. I hear there are many experimental so that may make it seem like a person did worse?

You're probably going to focus on the ones you got wrong (who remembers the ones they got right?). So take whatever your feelings are with a grain of salt as you walk out.

I guess my questions is more to figure out, if I mark x number of questions and get a certain percentage of them right...I would want to know where I stand after the test...but I guess that's impossible.
