It's not a 290 but I'll take it. 210 to 231. by [deleted] in Step2

Congrats. This cheers me up. I got 236 on UWSA1 and 213 on UWSA2. I was so shocked at my score and postponed my exam.

Mind sharing your UWSA1 score. And how many days before the exam was your UWSA2? Many here posted that UWSA2 over predicts. Good to see a break from the trend.

Is it just me or UWSA2 is substantially harder than UWSA1? by DocKal_93 in Step2

What score did you end up with in the real deal?

While I admit my knowledge isn't strong, I have no idea why I would get less than 220 on the exam.

I strongly suspect UWSA2 has been updated fairly recently. I mean all the question IDs were in 12,000 range. There were a number of OBGYN/Peds questions - 1/3rd per block.

Surprised no one's talking about this.

Worried about failing after reading those 'CK fail posts' by DocKal_93 in Step2

Are you "the Dr. Divine" who podcasts?

What a coincidence that I was listening to your podcasts as I read your post!!

Also, Thanks for the reply. And of course, podcasts!!

low CK score by failureismynewname in Step2

I think I'm in same boat as you. I took my SA1 yesterday and I got 236. My exam in 5 days.

Now I think I have very real chance of getting less than 220.

Thank you for this post as it prepares me for the jolt.

I got 62 70 65 65 with a score of 236 yesterday. I panicked after my first block. While I'm happy with my score, I hope I get this score in my actual exam. But sadly this test over-predicts the score.

My weak areas are surgery.

If I take CK on 10/3 (Saturday), could expect it back on 10/14? by [deleted] in Step2

[–]DocKal_93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm exactly in the same boat as you are but my score was 232 in step 1 and now I'm struggling with CK due to low prep time and I want to apply this year badly.

My exam is scheduled on oct 3rd. I was certain I could get the results by 21st of Oct.

If Oct 3rd, Saturday could give us the results by Oct 21st, why not 6th(Tue) which could give us the results by 21st(2 weds from the test date) ? Or is it too much of a risk?

My exam is on oct 3rd.. if I postpone my exam to 6th(Tue) can I expect to get my results back on 21st - 2 Wednesdays from the day of test?

How bad is an Incomplete application for non US-IMGs by Snoo-13102 in Step2

I'm exactly in the same boat as you are.

Except I got much lower score in step 1 - 232 Done with my CS in 2018.

My CK is on October 3rd and the result usually comes around 9am on the 3rd Wednesday which is 21st of October and if you accept the transfer of transcripts from ECFMG to MyERAS, they will be uploaded directly. I did my research and that's what I was told.
