How to get 95 on NBDE 1....that is the question?

So I did the unthinkable, after getting 88 on part 1 in July, I registered to retake the exam again in Nov/Dec😱😱

I wouldn't do it if next year wasn't P/F, but this is my last chance, and since I still remember lots, especially what the exam was like, I decided to do it. I'm applying to pedo, and if I get lots of interviews, I may not end up writing it.

So my question is for those who have written the exam more than once. How did you do... don't have to tell me the scores, but did you improve by couple points...more? Did you change your study sources or strategy?

I've ordered different books, b/c I don't think that just reviewing the same stuff will get more that much of a better score.

So for those who improved their scores significantly....how did you do it?? 🙂
 
I did all the same sources that everybody else does, the first aid nbde, decks, wheeler, notes from school, usmle first aid, released exam papers...but obviously for me it's not enough.
It all comes down to your background knowledge, when you graduated etc etc.

But please, there must be lots of people here who have written the exam multiple times....can't be just me? :laugh:.

So please share your experience.

I haven't taken the exam again yet, I planning to at the end of the year.
I'm hoping that someone will give me some advise on how they did it?
