The table below provides a history of your performance on the last six assessments you have completed, since July 18, 2019, along with test date and
timing information. The test date corresponds to the date you completed each assessment. A score interpretation guide has been included at the end of
this report to help you interpret your Assessment Scores.
Total test scaled scores from CMS forms started on or after October 29, 2015 cannot be directly compared to scaled scores reported prior to October 29,

Score Interpretation Guide
This guide will help you interpret the Assessment Score you received on this self-assessment.
The scores on this self-assessment are scaled to have a mean of 20 and a standard deviation of 3 based on a recent
group of examinees who took the Medicine Subject Examination for the first time as a final clerkship examination. The
following information is provided in response to user requests to “translate” this self-assessment score to the clinical
science subject examination equated percent correct scale. The NBME does not warrant that any individual performance
on the self-assessment will predict performance on the clinical science subject examination and cautions users of this
self-assessment against making any predictive inferences.
In the following table, locate your self-assessment score and find the approximate corresponding subject examination
score in the adjacent column. For example, if your self-assessment score is 20, it approximates a Medicine Subject
Examination score of 73.
Total test scaled scores from CMS forms started on or after October 29, 2015 cannot be directly compared to scaled
scores reported prior to October 29, 2015.
