I am an IMG (Radiologist from Bombay, India)
Got my score today (it took a month for the score to be reported)
USMLE Score Report -205/83
Kaplan Q Bank- 65-70%/ 75% complete
Studied seriously for 6weeks only before the exam, so that makes me feel that the score is ok and I can certainly do better.

Hi all,
Sorry for disappearing for a long time!
Got my score today.
Firstly this forum is great! And also the analysis by lvspro and others was very helpful in keeping my apprehension level down. I also need to thank lots of u probably some who even dont know me including Mars Aris, Mani, Malaysian, Meghana (wonder why all have their names beginning with M) and many others for all the discussion and encouraging words. Not sure whether I worked to my potential, but nevertheless am happy.
USMLE Step I: 93/230.
NBME 6 days before the exam: 530 corresponds to 226.
NBME 3 days before the exam: 520 corresponds to 224.
Kaplan simulated 4 days before the exam: 70%.
USMLE CD: I dont remember but was much below what most students get. That made me horrified, but I guess, that was because many of the questions in the CD were already in either qbook or qbank and so most students were solving the same question for probably second or third time and I hadn't done those so, atleast psychologically made myself comfortable.
I did not get time to solve many questions in qbook and qbank but I did a few tests and got around 33-40 right out of 50 thats around 66% to 80%. That was in the end. Initially I was pathetic.

Hi everybody, I got my result yesterday, find my experience:
Test result: 238/ 96
ecfmg CD: 44-43-37
Kaplan diag: 83% , 1m b4 exam.
NBME1: 590, 2w b4 exam.
NBME2: na
Q book on average 75%
Q bank: no data, but did it.
I studied for 10 months, but as I work full time as reaserch fellow in uni, I really had a very tight scedule and busy days, but I just didnt waste time and at the same time had my one night a week off going out for a drink and party. Just the last month, I took a leave and studied full time.
I used just Kaplan books but not the audio, or classes, but for the behavioral science which I used BRM which is not enough at all, and I should have studied Kaplan too. Kaplan Histo sucks, as high yield so I have no comment for that. I studied Mol. Bio. form High Yield too, which is very good.
The best predictor for your score is NBME, almost the same score!
Thanks guys and wish you all luck....

Test 233/94
USMLE CD = 37,32, 40
nbme #1 (late november/early december) = 380
nbme #1 (after new year) = 460
nbme #2 (mid febuary, 2-3 weeks before exam) = 460
IV qbank = 64%
