Hello, anyone have any data on the accuracy of NBME Form 7 for CK. I got my score back and I went down a lot from other NBME's.

Can anyone post there NBME 7 scores, UWSA scores, other NBME scores, and actual exam score?

I would really appreciate it as I take the test in a week,

Thanks

One of my Friends got 210 on NBME 7 and scored 260 on Real Deal. Aggregate of your remaining NBME's and UWSA score is more reliable IMO.
 
My NBME 7 was 16 points lower than the average of my NBME 4 and 6. I also happened to take it a few days before the exam, which was just lovely. I think the shock from the score did help prevent any burnout the past few days, which may have been good (still waiting on my score).

My actual exam was 5 points higher than NBME 7.
NBME 7 style questions were very close to the real deal.

You're one of the few people I've heard say this.

To OP, it's purely anecdotal. Some people say this it's equivalent to their real thing until they get their score back and their real score is 20 points higher and some people say it's much more vague than the real thing and their scores end up the same. As long as you are content with some of your NBME scores then just study as hard as you can and take the thing.

I also happened to score ~15 points higher than NBME 7. I went into the test thinking that NBME 7 was the lowest score I could expect to get.
