Usmle World Self Assessment

Anyone pay the 25$ to take the 150 question self assessment with a correlation to step 1 grade. If so curious too see if your grades were similar or completely different. Taking the test July 12th so thanks for the information or any help

I took it recently and the score and breakdown was exactly the same as NBME 3 for me. I did feel like the exam was harder. So I don't know how I got the exact same score as NBME 3. And their breakdown bars are not very precise, I had a * spanning all the way to borderline. In general I'd say the questions were in between NBME and UW in terms of difficulty.

Ok, usmle self assesment got 214, the following day after getting 206 with nbme form 5, 2 weeks before the actual test. Final result 207/85, so NBME is more accurate.
