Hey,
I'm about 3 weeks out and I took my 1st nbme today which was nbme 12 and scored a 480/217. I wanna shoot >235.. Is this possible in 3 weeks? I mean I guess I could postpone my exam but I'm honestly really burnt out but at the same I want a competitive score. How do I go about this? Also I'm planning to take nbme 13 and 15 which I heard was tougher (I thought it was the most recent ones so it would most represent the boards.) Should I just stick to the older (and relatively easier) nbme's? Thanks.. ANY advice is appreciated!🙂

Try using First Aid and Uworld. That will be your best bet to get the highest score you are capable of.

Take those 2 full lengths too. No magic formula. Work as hard as you can and get the results you get.

Well I get that but I was wondering is this possible in 3 weeks or do I need to think about pushing my exam? Also any advice about the nbme's? as in should I be taking nbme 13 and 15 or am I just asking to be discouraged ?
