I am just guessing because I dont know but I figure the lowest score you can get in each is a big fat zero...someone correct me if i am wrong...

Thanks Captain Obvious. I might imagine that this post is referring to the minimum passing score on each of these tests...could be wrong though. i do appreciate the sarcasm though...

186 is minimum passing score on USMLE

I figured as much it was refering to passing but what is the highest score you can get?

Pansit has been posting a lot of wisdom in the last couple of days...

The minimum for USMLE recently (this year) changed from a 182 to a 185. I don't know if it's possible to predict the max score b/c of the experimental questions.

Are the questions worth 1 or 1.5 or 3 points each?

I assume it's 1 point each. There is actually a thread about this in the USMLE/COMLEX forums. Might wanna ask over there.

186 is minimum passing score on USMLE

i heard they're raising it to 192. just a rumor.

 

[RajMahal]

also, most people assume that comlex is out of 800, but it's actually out of 900; someone in LECOM's 2007 class scored an 850 on comlex level 1

 

[box29]

400 is passing on COMLEX. I don't know how low one can score on the exam....0?

As far as I know it is 300 on USMLE and 900 for COMLEX.
