I took nbme 26 today (the start of my 6 week study period) and got a 241. I finished ~30K of the anking deck, and I am not doing any new cards currently. My plan is to do Uworld 80 Qs a day (already finished 62% of deck) and read FA, maybe do some kaplan questions as well (?). Is there any other advice anyone can give me to help me get over a 250 by test day? Anything more I can do?

Thanks

If you’re starting ~230-240 without UWorld, just finish UWorld and go over your weak areas and you will probably hit 250 in 6 weeks.

Ultra broad question without much context. When is your exam. You need to focus on memorizing NBME forms 20-30 (i.e., 20-24 offline before doing the online ones). UW integration depends on how far out you are. Learning style and weaknesses will factor into which external reading sources would provide you benefit. Kaplan is obsolete and laughable. This isn't 2010.
