You got 74 ...... if you study hard and u know your mistakes there is a very good chance for u to get a very good score next time because 74 is better than 75 and u can get a higher score...but if u get 75 its problem ahead

Listen I heard someone say you can ask for like a recheck of the exam???
I'm not sure. Does anyone know more

dont worry dear, it happens, but again 74 is far far better than 75, you might get good score in your next attempt. I think by this time you must have realized about your weakness that decreased your score, dont study outside from kaplan notes except for patho and behavioural sciences, there is a concept in every line in the books of kaplan, try to catch that and apply on the mcqs, do mcqs in abundance and when you are not sure about the answer , dont make a guess, read that topic which is being discussed in the mcqs again and then try to solve it, if it doesnt works then do the same thing again, still its not working then mark that mcq and read it and understand it from the explaination of that mcqs, this will help you a lot.
if you need any help you can post your message on your board

Listen don't worry just think that what if u got 75 then u'd be nowhere becuz there's nother way to improve yr scoress.
so don't lose ur moral n try yr second attempt after a month break in the meanwhile take rest n concentrate on the strategies for ur attempt n try to sort out yr weakpoints n try to get rid of them
goodluck

NOTworry you are not alone I got 73/178 , it was fanny for me in 1st day but then Ialso go down in depress ,I think it is normal reaction - name great expectation-we mast think that it is only 1st part of passing step 1 ,I know I fail in statistic and i now buy 300page book /statistic/- What is you week place in the test? how long you would be prepared for next /last/ try?

Can any body tell me what is the wrong of getting 75? what does it mean.
what a 75 means
75 means you got the lowest possible passing score. they used to use percentiles but have moved away from that due to obscure reasons. a 75 equates to being in the bottom 5-10% of the test takers who took the test (but at least you passed) so it is not that impressive and that by itself won't get you any interviews. you need a kick ass dean's letter or a 90 on step 2 or great letters of rec to compensate for such a poor score and get some interviews.
75 ?????
do u have a chance to repeat the exam after getting this mark???
