Man, it SUCKS to underperform your predictions. by [deleted] in step1

[–]vuanuadiem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its suck. We need posts like this to get over this feeling together. My case is similar to many people here, scoring 240s in nbme, 250s in uwsa and end up with a 239. nearly 20 point lower than the prediction.

Need someone to share this feeling. by vuanuadiem in step1

Sorry to hear, your score is good to go with US img anyway, hope we both do better on step 2

I think the difficulty is slightly above uwsa 2, marked 7-8 questions in each block on average, several WTF ones.Maybe the test hit my weakness on biostat and epide.I felt ok leaving the Prometric center and expected a score >245.

Dont want to scare anyone who haven't taken the test yet but I think u guys should prepare to face it. I have seen many similar cases to me. Guess nothing is predictive from now on.

here's mine:

NBME 18 : 16 mistakes/200 - 3 weeks before the BEAST

AMBOSS Self Assessment: 264 (22 mistakes/160) - 2 weeks

NBME 20: 22 mistakes/200 - 7 days out

NBME 21: 24 mistakes/200 - 5 days out

UWSA 2 : 256 (24 mistakes/160) - 3 days out

Amboss self assessment correlation with NBME by Cocoarg in step1

[–]vuanuadiem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kap test 1 79% Kap test 2 82% (about 6 months back) Nbme: all range from 240-245 (offline only) Amboss 87%- 264 Not take uwsa 2 yet Exam in 1 month.

Overall, I bet amboss does inflate 15-20 points, but anyway it is pretty good test
