your exam is in next 30days and it is more than enough to get above 230 based on your recent nbme performance...plz let me know what all NBME forms are still pending ( Relatively NBME 17,16,15 are good for assessment but all forms are helpful as they may test similar concepts).

Your recent nbme forms 11-208 and 12-224,average score is 216, which is close to your target score 225. Just revise your weak areas and maintain your strong areas...stick to FA and UW ( you will realize this after exam)...nothing else is needed to reach your target score...chill friend as you are near to your target score but aim for 250 which just need little bit extra effort...focus on all HY topics....they will test all important concepts and many obvious concepts which are easy to pick and put in your basket....Do FREE qs from FRED.....Try to be comfort in the concepts tested in all nbme forms....all the best

Try to complete remaining nbme forms (15,16 and 17) which are recent and reflective of real step 1....once you done with recent forms, pls make sure you know all concepts from all forms especially new forms, as we can expect same images and concepts even in step1....If possible complete all recent forms before 1 week of exam...during last 7 days you can revise/streamline HY topics as well nbme concepts....

Important suggestion: know something about everything apart from HY topics...sometimes knowing just definition/terminology help to answer some low yield qs...but do not compromise with HY topics...all the best friend
