I think it's based on a complicated equation which in part involves entering your BMI times your avg heart rate divided by your IQ plus the number of sexual partners in the past year.

Nope, no one knows. It's all speculation. The NBME is tightlipped. We don't even know what the highest possible score is.
Agree with above, nobody knows except the people who score this thing
we cannot predict what you need to pass, and since you are simply looking for someone to give you a percent, please understand that we dont know. overall tho, the NBME exams have been good predictors of one's step 1 performance so once you get to that part of your prep, your performance on these exams may give you a general sense of how you are doing.
And why are you concerned about what the "pass" mark is? Create a goal for yourself based on what your aspirations are, and set that as your own personal "pass". Surely you're not aiming just to pass Step I...?
(Yes, yes, I realize we all just want to pass and it's a hard test and all that, but realistically your own performance goal should be centered around something more than just that arbitrary, low, bare minimum score to pass)

Whatever L2D says is gold.😀
