Does the Department apply a cutoff score for USMLE Step 1 exam results in considering applications?
The Department does not have a “cutoff” score for consideration of applications. Applications are reviewed in their entirety. However, the Department attracts a competitive group of applicants. Last year, 75% of interviewed candidates had Step 1 scores of 223 or better with a median score of 235. All interviewed candidates had COMLEX Level 1 scores above 600.
