So I was hoping to go over just incorrects and Marked (any questions that are <50% right in UWorld) + review First Aid a second time, is that doable?

Should be. In my final two weeks I plan on taking 3 more NBMEs, finishing the 590 Uworld questions i have left, and hopefully reviewing first aid as much as possible in between haha.

Well Im making an assumption that questions in which 50% of all UWorld users got right are considered harder questions so I might as well just get a pass on those vs. wasting my time doing UWorld again and doing some of the easier questions...ehh its just a hard feat to do Uworld again (4 blocks a day + review FA for me)

is there a way to filter through the harder ones? Or are u just gonna look through the old tests?

from his post it seems as though he marked all of the ones that he thought were harder (based on <50% answering them right)

pretty good call.

i marked the ones where i chose the right answer based on the wrong reasoning

I have 3 more weeks and my plan is very similar to this. Finish the remaining 40% of UW, read through FA once, and do the two UW assessment and an NBME. Hope i can knock that all out.

reading these last 2 weeks posts makes me wish i saved uworld for a bit later into my prep once i had reviewed some stuff on my own, im so bored right now (i have about 400 incorrects/marked questions to go through but thats it) - i started rx yesterday caus i needed a stamina builder and thought it would help me get through FA, ill prolly be reserving 3-4 hours only for it though (and im not reading all the explanations, im just going to review incorrects or questions i mark that im not 110% confident about)

also planning on re-doing all the micro, anatomy, physio questions from uw, but just dedicating like a day to those each and using them as a way to read through my first aid notes alongside [ill be doin them on tutor mode probs?]

good luck to everyone 👍
