Is this how you start a poll, SDN knowers? Hope so.

It's been worrying me if I'll ever pass this test, so I thought I would start one:
PLEASE POST YOUR QBANK AVG, NBME(s), & FINAL USMLE STEP I SCORES.

Thanks a lot--and hope you're pleased, but don't hesitate to let us know if you're not!

ps My scores are lousy on Qbank. 20% done, 53% (randomized 50s) 😱

Roady,

I'm sure you'll do fine. I think you'll enjoy QBank more as your average starts creeping up.

QBank (1st time, all randomly, no repeats): 80%
NBME exams: 700, 710
Step I: 267

Best,

Nice scores, BigFrank!

If I could borrow about 20 points from you I'd be able to pass

I would not allow yourselves to become too worried when you see BigFrank's Qbank score %ile. He is honestly the the first person I have ever heard of getting that high (above 80 and being honest about it). I knew two buddies of mine that were in the mid to high 70's, and they both broke 240 and 250 respectively. My Q bank was 74% overall but not randomized, and instead done by systems and timed. I did Q bank as I read Step up in each system. I am predicting based on this fact alone and on my rank in my class that I will score somewhere around 230 or better. I might have predicted better before but as hard as that fat bast**d was, I could easily see myself in the 210-220 range. But, I am hopeful in that it is like every other standardized exam or school exam that I ever took where 90% of the time I do better than the exam felt. Its that 10% of the time where I perfomed worse than I felt that makes me worried!! I will honestly post my score here no matter if its pass or fail, embarrasing or pride evoking. And I took my exam on the 14th which probably has my scores being released one of the next 2 Wednesdays with luck like BigFrank, or a couple of weeks later if I have Matt's luck!!

So "gag me with a spoon" as the shirts used to say in the early 80s (yeah, I remember). Now that I've corrected my abominable error (or as some say, errata--which sounds ridiculousatta): will some folks post their friggin stats?!

Thanks

You'll get a lot more replies in about a week or two when most of us get our scores back. Just wait.
