Hey I wanted to take a diagnostic test before I started studying and the Kaplan one seemed like the most expendable. Does anyone have any idea what 60% means in real world terms? Appreciate the help.

According to their "score estimator" (who knows the validity) - 60% on Kaplan QBank corresponds to a 227 🙂

Does anyone know how valid Kaplan's Score Estimator is?

Take an NBME. I'd assume it's the MOST valid. 🙂

If you got a 60% in kaplan 7 blocks timed like the real thing...
I would think 220s is not overly optimistic.

true, but it would be nice to know as I can do one for no cost.

FYI - Kaplan Qbank score estimator is not the same as a diagnostic estimator.

It might end up being the same, but I believe they actually have a chart for this, you might have to contact them (my school posted it up somewhere before)
