Lecturio self-assessments were created to help students measure their preparedness and get firsthand experience in a simulated USMLE testing environment. Lecturio’s self-assessment is based on the latest NBME standards and includes 160 case questions, organized into 4 blocks. Each block is 60 minutes long – just like the USMLE Step 1 and USMLE Step 2 CK exams.

Everyone who signs up via the landing page can take part with their registered Lecturio account. Everyone who did not sign up by February 26, 2024, 10 am CET won’t be considered for the Self-Assessment Week results. (Look up your time zone here.)

The Self-Assessment Week will take place between February 26, 2024, 10 am CET and March 4, 2024, 10 am CET. The link to the self-assessment will be sent via email on February 26, at 10 am CET. (Look up your time zone here.) The self-assessment will be only accessible through the email link. Please note that this link is personalized and sharing it may lead to issues when taking the test and for getting the results.

Each question block in the self-assessment is allocated 60 minutes for completion. It’s important to allocate sufficient time to finish each block without interruptions. While it’s possible to pause the exam in between blocks, we advise completing each block in one sitting for a more effective and realistic exam simulation.

You can only access the self-assessment through the link we will send you. If you have completed the first block of your self-assessment, you should be able to see the self-assessment within the study planner section on your mobile app. You can complete the other three blocks there. Even though it is possible to take the self-assessment on the web browser of your mobile device, we recommend you to take it on your desktop.

The self-assessment consists of 4 blocks of 40 questions. Participants have 60 minutes for each block and need to spend at least 15 minutes on each block. To receive a score, all blocks must be completed. Unanswered questions will be marked incorrect.

The self-assessment scoring system is based on former USMLE score reports, consisting of a 3-digit score ranging between 1 and 300. The minimum passing score is 196, which is reflective of the USMLE’s new pass/fail scoring of Step 1. The minimum passing score for the USMLE Step 2 CK is 214.

The Self-Assessment Week results will be sent out via email on March 06, 2024, at 10 am CET. (Look up your time zone here.)

The Self-Assessment Week results, which will be sent out via email on March 6th, include a comprehensive report featuring your 3-digit score, a percentile ranking, and tailored study recommendations.

The Lecturio self-assessment scores are based on the performance of all self-assessment takers within the week of February 26, 2024, and March 4, 2024, following a set of requirements (e.g. minimum number of blocks to be answered) and the USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK score distribution. Though the questions have been selected by US-trained physicians, the score and content presented in the Lecturio Self-Assessment Week are for educational purposes only. It should not be used as a prediction of your real performance on the USMLE exam.
