I know people say that UWorld questions repeat on their real exams, in addition to it just being a great learning resource in general. Do NBME questions repeat as well? Or repeat enough in concept that it is worth thoroughly reviewing the NBME? Or is it just meant to be used as an assessment and nothing more?


Just trying to determine the value in thoroughly reviewing and studying NBME exams after you take them. Thanks.

Yes. I had about 5 word-for-word (all answer choices had the same exact options in the same exact order). Nice to have a photographic memory

Edit: Also took my test on March 1, so it was recent

Yeah. I had a couple repeats. I also had a repeat IMAGE, but different vignette.

Yes. Especially questions from CBSEs and NBME subject exams that were given by my school.
