Just did NBME form 11 today. Got a 450 (equivalent to 217)
This is my performance profile for it.

Finshed USMLE Rx with 64% cumulative average (only did medium and hard question)
Finished just over half of uworld so far, doing 2-3 blocks per day with review of questions. Cumulative average so far is 62% (59th percentile)

Writing in 2.5 weeks and my goal is to hit 235-240 range. Any suggestions on how I should study for the next few weeks to get my score up there?

Any solid suggestions would be appreciated.
 
I would look into what "general principles of foundational science" includes.. Is that stuff like immuno, molecular bio, etc? I'd imagine if you can get your general principle stuff down your score will go up quite a bit since general principles are so important for reasoning through questions.
 
Looks like its cellular mechanism stuff, pharmacodynamics/pharmacokinetics material and genetics related material looking now at the questions I got wrong. Genetics has never been something I've been able to really conquer.
 
Below I have posted my Uworld cumulative scores (first pass), this is with 84% of the Qbank completed. Still have just under 2 weeks to go before test day. Any advice on how I should focus my studying and if it is realistic to hit 235-240? Any advice would be appreciated, thank you all in advanced!
