I was thinking anything above 650, but not sure. Someone asked me this today and I wasn't able to give a concise answer so I thought I'd ask you guys.
 
Not sure anyone knows. According to a practice COMSAE level 2 I once took, it said “average between 450-650”. Obviously that’s a huge discrepancy. I think 550 is about 50th percentile, 670 is about 90th percentile.

My humble opinion is that 600s starts to look good.

Id say 600+ is really good, not just starts to look good. However it is all relative to what specialty you are going for. A 600 is going to mean different things for IM and Neurosurgery.
