Free 120 score conversion: the quick answer

A Free 120 score conversion is a planning estimate from percent correct to a Step score range. It should answer one question: does your official-style sample exam agree with the rest of your practice data?

For Step 2 CK, the high-intent query is usually free 120 step 2 score conversion. That belongs on this calculator page, because students searching it want the tool first and the caveats immediately after.

Use this page when
  • Use your raw percent correct, not a rounded block average if you have the total.
  • Enter Free 120 as one input in the calculator, then add a recent CCSSA or UWSA.
  • Compare the midpoint with the confidence interval before changing your test date.
  • If Free 120 and your latest NBME disagree by more than 8-10 points, trust the range and investigate why.

Free 120 FAQs

What is the Free 120 score converter for Step 2?+

It is an independent calculator that turns your Free 120 percent correct into a Step 2 CK planning estimate. It is not an official USMLE or NBME conversion table, so use the estimate together with a recent comprehensive self-assessment.

How predictive is Free 120 for Step 2 CK?+

Free 120 is a useful late-stage readiness signal because its format and content outline resemble the live exam. It is still one assessment, so combine it with a recent CCSSA or UWSA and use the full predicted range.

Why is Free 120 so accurate?+

Its main value is familiarity with official-style questions and timing close to test day. There is no official one-to-one percentage-to-score conversion, so the table below is an independent estimate rather than an NBME or USMLE score report.

When should I take Free 120?+

Most students get the cleanest planning signal inside the final 1-2 weeks. Earlier can still be useful for pacing practice, but the score becomes less tied to test-day readiness as more study time remains.

What Free 120 percentage equals a 250 Step 2 CK?+

Approximately 78-80% on Free 120 corresponds to a Step 2 CK around 250.

Does Free 120 also predict Step 1?+

Yes for Step 1 candidates — there is a separate Step 1 Free 120. Use the Step 1 selector in the calculator below.

Should I use an older 2019 Free 120 conversion chart?+

Older charts can be useful as rough context, but they may reflect older item sets and student samples. Prefer a current percent-correct estimate and compare it with your latest CCSSA or UWSA before making test-day decisions.
