So, as far as Step 1 scoring goes, getting 7 out of 10 questiond right, does not mean your score is a 70%. It could be 60% or 80% or anything in between and beyond.

No the score of 182 and now 185 is out of 300, so thats 60% to now 61%.
I know this to be true because my friend just passed with a 255 and had 85% of the questions right, 255/300 = 85%, he was told by the proctor that he got 85% right so yeah it does work out. This is really no big deal you will never get a good residency below like 210 anyway so how does this hurt you?
