Hi everyone,

Those of you who alreay took the exam,I would appreciate if you can tell me how the UW score ( overall mean or the range of scores) correlates with your score on the actual step 2 ck score.
Thanks
Goodluck

Sorry to hear that, mumbaimulgi.

I meant 58 in uw, 88 two digit in the real test. I don't understand what is happening to you, I hope it'll get better. smiling face

But uw is a learning tool, it does not substitute NBME for evaluation and prediction.

For step 3, for example, I started uw with 57%. After I answered all the questions, I started making 92%, which was very weird, and made me wonder if I was learning or actually remembering the right answers. (I always do in tutor mode). So every new set of questions, my total correct would go up 1% and at the end (about 20 days), it was 67%. So I got mad and stopped using it.

I'll tell you how the real test was.

Try this:

And click on the Step 2 score estimator.
It worked perfectly for me with the Step 1 score estimator. Don´t forget: it´s just an estimation.
Good luck!
