Best NBME form to take for Step 1?

[Falconclaw]

I'm taking Step 1 a week from now (Feb 4). I've taken both UWSA's and NBME's 13 and 17. I wanna do one more. Are any of them better than the others?

Don't do 13. Do 16.17,18. All may predict, 16/17/18 represent the exam more.

I felt my scores were more dependent on my mental state when I took the practice exams. Sometimes I just felt foggy and didn't do well even if it was an "easy" form. Luckily not he real one I felt sharp and my score reflected that.

I dont know... does it matter which one you take? Your knowledge is what it is at this point and a form that makes you feel either better or worse doesn't really matter.

The UWSAs and 15-18 all felt pretty representative to me. 18 is supposedly the hardest, but the one I did the best on. I ultimately scored an average of what I got on all of them excluding the first one that was several weeks earlier than the rest (12).

I'd do 18. For me, 13, 17, and 18 were closest to my actual score.
