About NBME Score Calculator

A free, no-login set of score calculators for the people actually sitting these exams — built and maintained by one independent developer, with the method written down in public.

Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the NBME® or USMLE®. Educational estimates only.

Why this exists

If you have studied for the USMLE, you know the drill: the useful score converters are scattered across old forum threads and spreadsheets, half of them are out of date, and the polished ones tend to sit behind a subscription. Working out what your NBME 28 or UWSA 1 result actually means should not cost money or a scavenger hunt. This site started from a simple frustration — that a basic, honest conversion tool should be free, current, and in one place — and grew into a full set of calculators built around exactly that.

What we build

22 calculators & converters

A dedicated tool for each current NBME and UWorld self-assessment across Step 1 and Step 2 CK, plus converters that line every sitting up on one three-digit scale.

USMLE score predictor

Combine your results into a single readiness read, so you can see the direction of travel instead of squinting at one form in isolation.

Lab values reference

The reference ranges you actually reach for during questions, laid out as a fast, no-friction study aid.

How we keep it honest

A study tool is only worth using if you can trust where its numbers come from. These are the commitments the site is built on.

Free, with no login to use

Every calculator runs in your browser at no cost. There is no paywall between you and your estimate.

Method in the open

How each number is produced — the models, the source data, and the limits — is documented on our methodology page, not hidden.

No ads, ever

The tools are not wrapped in ad networks or trackers designed to follow you around the web.

We do not sell your data

Calculation history stays in your own browser, and anything you choose to share with us is never sold to third parties.

Every estimate here is exactly that — an approximation from community-reported data, not an official score. We are transparent about the limits so you can weigh the number sensibly. Where every constant came from is set out on our methodology page, and the boundaries around using it are on our disclaimer.

Found a result that looks off?

This is a one-person project, and your feedback is how the estimates stay accurate. If a number does not match your official readout, or a form you sat is missing, tell us.
