Is that an average throughout or has there been an improvement?
My average is only 66 with 200qs left but that was due to my starting the questions without revision and i would rarely get above 60% on a block of 50 for the longest time. Now I am scoring mid to high seventies on every random block and still have 8weeks to go. Not only that I find that every block I am missing at least 2 questions because I have not read the question correctly and I would of gotten right if I had slowed down (I never take more than 20 mins per block, I need to force myself to SLOW DOWN)

Look at your last 10-15blocks and see where you are. Good luck with the NBME, you will be fine

My friend got 66% for Qbank, he scored 84 in real exam

in the beginning i was getting in 50s then 60s and finally in the 70s
but my average overall came to be 66 coz of the earlier low scores

My friend,

Believe in the NBME to a better degree than Kaplan--many have reported that their scores correlate closer to these qs with their final USMLE score than with Kaplan.

P.S. I take my USMLE on 8/3, and got 360 on the NBME. I will take another NBME in 2 weeks, praying for over 400. My Qbank to date avg on random 50s (unstudied beforehand)....52%

And you thought you were nervous.

Good! Luck, I mean.
