I didn’t see OP’s username and just snorted.
Idk about you but without the library I feel useless, New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. I barely finished UWorld because I didn't want to start until I felt like I had covered my stuff.
Also thank you to those who did analysis in the past, as your calculations made this effort possible, https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1S1pegnbqAtWjZVR1LVKP2qYPh7Y-eV89QQYH0SjlVWk/edit?usp=sharing.

Very happy with how it all worked out! Over the last few months I collected quite a bit of data, and now I can officially say that the Score Predictor is complete. If you wish to be given flair of your score, just send me mod message with proof of your score. I really only used FA/UW but I memorized FA like the back of my hand. USMLE Step 1 is the first national board exam all United States medical students must take before graduating medical school. and what should I aim for in a step 2 CK score?
Yeah it seems like there's minuscule weight given to the new NBMEs. Also, how long did sketchy micro and pharm take you to run through ?
(I'm an IMG). Congrats! How long do you think it would take to do all of BnB FULLY?
I got my results back a week ago.
Did Boards and Beyond (the first week to hammer out foundational physiology) and UFAPS.

Feel free to ask if you have questions! Thank you! I did the Pepper anki decks for Sketchy during dedicated and that made nearly all the pharm and micro questions free points.
The real thing felt much more like Uworld than any of the NBMEs.
Edit: still haven’t received score as of Feb 19! These were done months before my exam date, when I wasn't studying seriously: These were done within a month of my exam date: I remember walking out of the exam and thinking I failed or I got below 220, because I flagged 25% of the questions per block, and I was tight on time for most of the blocks.

Hey congrats! I really spread out my studying but I got serious with studying 1.5 months before my exam date and I improved from a 215 to my final scores, shown below. USMLE Step 1 is the first national board exam all United States medical students must take before graduating medical school.
Would greatly appreciate if you shared more details on how you studied.

I find it takes a long time to write everything, but I have everything all on one sheet, and it's way easier to reference.

Thanks again for your hard work and dedication for these neurotic students lmao.
My prep wasn't anything special: First Aid, Uworld, Pathoma, Sketchy Micro and Pharm, some BRS physio to review first year stuff.
is it normal to feel like I you've failed the step? Take 2 weeks to do full pass of First Aid because panic.
Real thing (6/27): 248. As in how did you both approach questions and the resources you used... some hope for anyone with big discrepancies between NBMEs and Uworld! Press J to jump to the feed. Part 2: The AnKing Overhaul Deck video (WHY this deck is so awesome!
I'll update with my score once I get it, hopefully it won't be so bad but I really don't know.
That's awesome to see that you outscored your NBMEs by a lot.
Did you spend more time taking notes or did you have a manner of going through the videos? Background - Canadian in mid-tier US medical school. Please refrain from posting in this thread unless you have received your score report. Hey, thanks for this! i'll update you guys when i get my score back to share the accuracy. Last year I posted a survey regarding an updated USMLE score predictor that would utilize the new NBME forms (20-24). NOTE: To use the sheet simply download it to your device and open it in excel, google docs, or another spread sheet program.
USMLE Step 1 is the first national board exam all United States medical students must take before graduating medical school. Is that possible for a Canadian IMG?
Any advice on what I should supplement in that last 4 weeks, and the best way for me to keep the B&B stuff fresh in my head I.e.
If this is accurate then it will definitely give me a lot of agony or joy over the next several months... p.s.my exam date is Dec 27, I used kaplan, UW, new nbmes, 120 as the parameter, I messed around with inputting values that varied by like 20 points +/- from my new NBME scores, and the predictor barely changed my estimated Step 1 score.
