Degree/Program suggests a minor 5 point jump between US DO's and US MD's (240 vs 245). Persons will see around a 10 point jump in their actual Step 1 score between the bottom 25th, middle 50's, and top 25th percentiles. According to the best-fit line, persons will generally do better than their goal score ( m = 1.0058, with the intercept pegged at 0). The biggest predictor of score (aside from practice exams) is your Goal Score and your Class Percentile. The national historical average for Step 1 is one standard deviation below the average of this data set.
