Can we get everyone's step 1 score, who care's about bios.

[Guest]

These are 5 point ranges of three unmatched scores that I am aware of:

201-206,
246-251,
272-277,

This happens every year. There can be randomness to the process. Important to apply to a range of programs and to do second visits to a range of programs.

I'm guessing there are a lot more sub 240s that didn't match than people over 240. Not sure anything matters more than that score.

I heard this was a record Step 1 year. Average was like 255.

[Guest]

I really hope that's not true...currently an M2 and I might fall into the 230s range. Even if I get a strong Step 2 score, hearing a 255 Step 1 average is so disheartening.
