so my ? is...if one scored pretty poorly on the MCAT in the 22-24 range, are you pretty much screwed for the USMLE, or there is really no comparison between the two exams and it just depends on your work ethic and determination in med school?

Work ethic and determination..... or there is really no comparison between the two exams and it just depends on your work ethic and determination in med school?
If you studied day and night for several months and couldn't get past the 22-24 range, then there might be a problem. But if you didn't sincerely study, then as long as you commit 100% to the USMLE it should be fine.

what is the proper way to study for these standardized exams? I took kaplan got a verbal tutor, did examkrackers verbal, did practice passages, took all the aamcs, kaplan, and the PR tests. I dont know how to change my studying tactics. Suggestions for the future?
What type of question is this? I would like to think that as an accepted student to medical school you would have a little more common sense than to ask such a vacuous question. Obviously there is no rule that says a poor MCAT = a poor USMLE. They are 3-4 years apart. Just study your ass off. If what you want to know is if a lower MCAT score means that you are not as smart as other people, thus will probably also get a lower USMLE score, then the answer is YES. Have some more confidence in your abilities my friend, you are going to be a doctor one day.
