Does anyone know what the Step 1 average has been for 2012? Or, for 2011, if that's not available?

according to my score report released last week, mean for first time examinees from US & Canada is a 224 with a SD of 22

I feel like 268 has to be higher than 97.5%tile. I recall ijn having said at one point that the distribution might be a bit negatively skewed.

The thing is the 2011 NRMP data is based on people who took the exam in 2009. Maybe the incidence of 260+ has really jumped substantially in the past 3 years. We'll know about the test takers from 2011 after the 2013 match.
