I took NBME 11 offline and ended up with 74%. Very very disappointing. I did NBME 11 online few months ago but totally blew it because I was interrupted throughout the entire exam. I dont remember anything and I missed about 10 qs per block (never take an NBME online at home with people around - lesson learnt)

I figured 74% roughly corresponds to 210/470. This is really bad considering my uworld avg was around 65% first time in random questions.

I have all the resources. My exam is in 2 months. Aim is to get atleast 240. Id be happy with 235 too but 240 would be nice.

Can anyone tell me what I can do from here to improve my score in 2 months?
 
Do an online NBME then work on the weak areas based on the feedback. If you feel you do poorly because you can't recall then just keep hitting FA. If you don't understand the question and what they are asking then supplement with Kaplan and either pathoma or goljan for path. Try to do an NBME with every run through FA so you can see if you are improving or not.
 
Thanks. Thats makes sense to do an NBME after every read of FA. That would definitely improvement and weak areas.

Anyone know if I should use supplementary material for pharm other than FA and UW?

FA and uworld are more than adequate for pharm and pretty much everything else.
