A percentile score shows how your performance compares to other UWorld users, meaning a 70th percentile means you outperformed 70% of users on that topic.

The Subject Breakdown report displays your percent correct for each subject area, helping you identify which topics need more attention.
Question 5: How does UWorld's 'Omitted' question status differ from 'Incorrect'?
- Omitted questions were skipped without an answer selected, while incorrect means a wrong answer was chosen (Correct answer)
