Kaplan Qbank USMLE

  #1

I just took NBME form 3....and i realised that there were a few questions that were posted in the forum and i had gone through them as they weren't labelled NBME questions...

I just want to say that if anyone wants to post them please state that they are NBME questions for the benefit of those who haven't taken the tests (it kind of kills the entire essence of "self assessment").

Thankyou!

National Board of medical examners Questions are questions from exam that is conducted and witten by paying 45$ to evaluate one's own level.

PLEASE DO NOT POST THE QUESTIONS IF YOU DO THE EXAM.
IT WILL DISTORT EVALUATION. IF YOU DO WANT TO DISCUSS.PLEASE TITLE THE QUESTION AS AN NBME QUESTION.

PLZZZZZ DO THIS

thanks for the help..

To drkm

NBME score has 500 as mean and SD of 100
USMLE score has 215 as mean and SD of 20
your NBME score of 470 would correlate to USMLE score between 195 and 215

well i took nbme today and realized, quite a few questions were already posted here, i saw questions that believe had posted were the pictures from nbme exam, well i guess this is unfair .... as i still dont know where i stand...

its a request, please dont post nbme questions without the heading....


  #12

  #13

well sarika i did form 1, and about 5-6 quetions i had already done...

  #14

Hey guys

Haven't taken the NBME, cause i'm terrified to take it, is it anything like q-bank, so quite different??? Thanks.


  #15

i took nbme 1 and scored 520, and I was left with a feeling that a lot of the questions were non-vignette based and short as well. anyone who has taken the Step 1 please comment if they found the nbme questions easier than the exam and not entirely reflective of the Step 1

how good an indicator is nbme for step 1 overall??


  #16

Hey Guys I just took 79/193 in step1. This is the first time that I take the exams.

And I wonder. When a program says that the cut-off is let's say 85 what this program mean? The summary of step1 and step2? At least 1 of them?

And which is the most important step1 or step2?

I am interested in Internal Medicine or Pediatrics


  #17

As you guys know about 90-95% of my qs are original, but I can empathize with the NMBE issue{it DOES mess up the assesment.
