The United States Medical Licensing Examination score (USMLE score) is given to test takers as a 2-digit and 3-digit score. These two scores are related to each other and are commonly used by hospitals to determine eligibility for residency and fellowship. The three-digit score is based on a theoretical maximum of 300, but this has not been documented by the NBME / FSMB. The two-digit score is normalized to the three-digit score such that a 75 is equal to a 188 for the USMLE Step 1. Contrary to popular opinion, the two-digit score does not represent a percentile.
