As Kamala said, do an NBME, as it is probably the best estimator. I found this score calculator that considers multiple factors in predicting your score plus shows the standard deviation. It might be helpful in giving you an idea. Good luck!

,
I strongly suggest you to give NBME 3&4 ,and review nbme offline question,,,it will help you alot,,,,whatever your score now just carefully solve nbme,,,and also solve 3 block question from usmle.org ,,,,best of luck for your exam.

Hi everyone!!

I actually had a similar question regarding scores.... its very confusing, especially the three digit score because I never know what it means, what is good, really good, or bad....

I found on a website the following information, and would really appreciate if someone could tell me if it roughly correlates, or not!!!

It said that the conversion from 2-digit to three followed a linear correlation, from the passing score 75 - 182 (2 digit - 3 digit score) until it reached the 99 score at 243, and that from that point on, anything above 243 is a 99 on the 2 digit.
So:
75 - 182 : Passing score.
to calculate 2 digit could use the formula:
(2digit score) x 2.45 = 3 digit score
until 99 - 243 to 280.

If this is true, then if I got on the self asessments on UW a 247 it means Im on 99?????

And, on the nbme self asessments, do you get also an approximate 3 digit and 2 digit scores??

with these scores, would you present the exam in 2 weeks???

Thank you!!! so much!
Its just all these scales are confusing!!!
