For those that have written, any advice on what to do in the last 2 weeks before Step 1?
My current plan is trying to read thru FA another 2x (100 pages a day). I've completed UW twice, and now just reading thru old tests daily, as well as completing Rx.
Planning to do another 2 assessments (UWSA2 and another NBME). The last NBME I look last week was 234.
Just don't want to burn out...yet keep the information fresh.

Any tips from your experiences? Thanks

I would go over only the HY sections in FA, micro, pharm, etc. Also, what I did 2 days before is a speed read through Goljan RR looking at some of the blue boxes and images, as well as Goljan's HY notes. The last 4 days I studied no more than 3-4 hours per day. Take some time to relax.
 
Same boat as you, OP. I've only done FA once, over 3 weeks, 6 months ago. I've just run through the Qbanks and now am doing FA 2x.
