When I tried purchasing the NBME on the self assessment i noticed for usmle step 1 basic sciences it starts at NBME 5 and goes up.

NBMEs 1-4 are for clinical sciences.

Yet there are offline NBMEs 2-6 as well. I wanted to ask someone if the offline ones (aside from NBME 5 &6) were basically for step 1 or step 2?
I've gone through a few of the questions and noticed it seems like pretty relevant information we would need to know. (even though i feel it maybe a lot easier)
 
NBMEs that are available offline (1-4) are for Step 1. The ones for step 2 are downloaded separately. If you have downloaded the pack of NBME forms 1-7 then most likely they are all for step 1.
