hey guys, i have a quick question. i was wondering, what percentage of the questions do you need to get correct to get a 2 digit 99 for step 1? i just saw a conversion table for the NBME 5 and according to that, getting 84% percent correct is a 236/99. i have been told from various professors, that if you get about 70% correct on the boards, your more than likely to get a 99 on step. can you guys tell me more

Only when it starts to be useless!🙄

the NBME basically states on their website that it is useless, in so many words.
