Never took the SAT. My MCAT put me somewhere above the level needed to teach MCAT prep for Kaplan - my ACT and MCAT scores were the same number. That level of success did not translate to the USMLE for me, and my scores for all three steps were right at the median value (scores for step 1 one matter a lot, for step 2 much less, and for step 3 not so much as long as you pass…let me just say you don’t want a pediatrician - which is what I am - managing vaginal bleeding in post-menopausal females)
