how true is this formula? cuz there are a few who got 185 or 188 which applying ur formula = 185 x 1.5 = 277 shockedshocked

Hmmmm how can i say and u belive its fool proof.its general consensus buddy...thats it.

online nbme gives u correct estimate... and if anyone gets 185 qs correct out of 200 in any nbme he is ready for the test and shudnt look for calculations i think... isnt it....sticking out tongue



anyways... we do have many things to worry abt rather than abt the 2 digit 3 digit and nbme correlates.... any score in nbme above 165 is good i am told.

  #7

hey kalyann , liked your multiplication formula. and i am in complete agreement that you don't get exact score but will work for rough estimate. (and by the who want exact score when you are saving $45 right? ). I will tell your formula to my friends who are thinking of doing download version of nbmes but are hesitating because they don't have any estimation formula. thanks buddy.
