Well....there was this one person who posted a 99 a little while back. But, no, not many. I've seen ppl post a 95, even a 98 once, so I guess it's not impossible. 🙂

its common to get 99 in usmle.I have seen so many members preparing for usmle and got 99 percentail.its very rare for part1.

1. NBDE probably has different ways to calculate the percentile compare with USMLE;

2. Another possible reason is that most people who got 99 are American dental students who barely come to this forum asking for help or showing off.
