Summary: Predictions based on yearly survey results are in fields H4:H7, with an average calculated in H8. Predictions have remained mostly stable
R2 values were used as weighting to correct the prediction, but has minimal effect (result in L8). The 2018 data also have calculations based on NBME
UWSA Ave, and UWSA+NBME Ave and associated R2 values (formulas from u/SchoolinMedSchool). These were calculated separately and is availab
a comparison. The "goals" fields are merely for your own tracking of results and motivation (you can play with numbers to get an idea of how to get to
goal score by looking at the averages of the first set of calculations below the line [results in fields H32:H49] when you put in sample scores abov
[C4:C21]). Note that Date-adjusted method does not utilize R2.
