This book compiled stats from 2009 test takers via questionnaire and pooled together things like books used, time spent studying, other stuff and separates them based on below a 240 and above a 240. One of the stats that caught my eye was the following.
it says people that scored >240 were getting an average of 68.3% on their qbanks, and that those getting <240 averaged a 63.1%. Based on what i've seen looking around sdn, these averages seem way to low. What do you guys think?
They did not account for things like people using different qbanks(but did state that most people used uWorld), but then again I get the feeling people on sdn inflate their scores a tad.
