Haha so sorry, I'm kidding about getting a prize...but seriously all you seasoned forum people out there, please help me predict my score!

I'm taking the step1 in about 1 week...ahhh!

My USMLE World cumulative is 72% so far. Average about 75% recently.
Self assessment exam #1 for USMLE World is 258.

To me that seems a bit high...anyone have an idea of where I really stand?
Also, with 1 week left, should I think about taking an NBME (haven't done one) or just another USMLE World self assessment (these at least have explanations to the answers)

Thanks guys!

I would guess you stand between 245-265.

Are we using The-Price-Is-Right rules?


If so, I'll bid $1.

Good Luck.

u really want some positive reinforcement dont you...here you go...>250

 

[step1ahh]

mastitis: a little positive reinforcement would definitely help, especially a week before the test. but more than that an educated guess would be helpful so I know where I stand!

deferoxamine: no price is right rules! lol

also, with a week left do you guys think its worth doing an NBME to get a better predictor or do the self assessment #2 from U World so I can review the explanations? Or is doing the NBME worth it to get used to the style of questions?

Thanks! and keep the predictions coming guys!

 

[rahulb]

i'm gonna have to go with 420

 

[BoneNibbler]

218 👍

 

[DoctorMario]

240-250

 

[defcon8]

247-254 is my guess.. an NBME test will give you a more reliable assessment of where you are at and with a week left, you should take it within a day or 2 rather than later, so u can actually do something about any weaknesses that may show up.

If I have to take one more NBME exam, which one should it be ?

nbme 4...i thought it was a little harder than 2 and 5. the stems were a bit longer too...though still not like super long or anything.

otherwise, think about 3 or 6. haven't done those though.

 

[Mr. Itchy]

196

 

[scube]

196

OUCH!!!

It may be a future FML.

"I was studying for boards, on my way to greatness(>240) and I decided to post on SDN what ppl thought I would get. most ppl put me at above a 230 but Mr. Itchy said 196, guess who was right. 🙁"

 

[hrusky17]

Mr. Itchy is way off, I say 201

78ish% on world over the last 600 or so
CBSE a while back 225
NBME 5 -240 3-4 weeks ago
NBME 2 -260 last week
test on the 26th

goal was 245
