#USMLE STEP 1 SCORES HOW TO#

I have other blog posts about my Step 1 experience, NBMEs, dedicated schedule, best resources, and how to stay sane while studying for this exam. That was the best thing I could for myself at this point. I tried to get my headspace in the right place. I had a few more days of studying and reviewing to do then I took the day before my exam off. Of course, I still had doubts that I would totally bomb this exam. I’ve heard that these set of questions are very predictive of actual Step 1 exams scores. Also, there’s no score report generated from these questions.

These questions can be found here and the correlation which was made from someone on Reddit can be found here. I was doing less Uworld and more reviewing of First Aid. At this point, I had one week left until my exam. I thought about pushing back my test date after this exam but was so tired that I knew I couldn’t do a few more weeks of dedicated. While it was easy to get upset that I wasn’t as close to my goal score as I wanted, I tried to find comfort in that my scores weren’t trending the opposite way. I knew I had put in a lot of work and tried my best.

medical students in 2017-2018 was 230, I was content with this score. Match rates of US graduates: percent matched by preferred specialty. Anyway, a 239… Given that the average Step 1 score for U.S. For less competitive residencies, the mean USMLE® Step 1 scores were between 221 and 237. I forgot to save my score report for this one. Hopefully, by giving you some real, average scores to reference to, you’ll restore some confidence in yourself during this difficult time. Throughout my time studying for Step 1, I was repeatedly discouraged from reading about how people would have these incredible practice exams scores. Lastly, I wanted students to have scores to reference to that are not from people scoring >270, at the beginning of dedicated. So, I wanted to offer some inspiration to those starting off in a similar place. I started off with an almost failing score but ending up with a score a few points from my goal score of 250. It was also important for me to share these for those who are going through the process now. Especially with Step 1 becoming pass/fail next year, these numbers will mean absolutely nothing very soon! In this post, I’ll be sharing my Step 1 practice exam scores! Initially, I was a little hesitant about posting them because I know how hard one can be judged on an exam score! BUT, I feel that as medical students, we are SO much more than these numbers.
