I discuss the weak scale threshold corrections in supersymmetric models. I describe the ``match and run" approximation to the threshold corrections and compare with the exact one-loop results. With explicit examples I show that in cases without large hierarchies in the mass spectra the ``match and run" approximation can lead to order $\cal{O}$(1) errors in the determination of the threshold corrections. I demonstrate how to obtain the threshold-corrected Yukawa coupling from the fermion pole mass. I present corrections to the top quark and squark/slepton masses as a function of the GUT scale parameters $m_0$ and $m_{1/2}$ and show that the gauge/Higgs sector corrections to the top quark mass are small while the gluino correction can be larger than the well known gluon correction.
