8/8 NBME 1 510/232 (pre-study)
9/6 NBME 3 490/228

UWORLD: (1st run)50% complete overall 67% random and timed
Test Oct. 6

Trying to get a >240, any suggestions or do I seem to be on the right track ? Going to take UWSA in 2 weeks, Should I bother with another NBME and if so which one? Lastly does anyone know if the free questions on the USMLE website are worth the time?

I feel you man.. ignore form 3, its a load of crap. I don't know what I got on my real thing, but I scored a 232 on the UWSA prestudy and then a 225 on form 3.. It seems a lot of others agree.


I also advise you to just stick with the UWSA and dont do another NBME.. at least with UWSA you can review your whole test.
Another thing you could try is to take 3-4 blocks before doing the UWSA to simulate the endurance of the actual exam. I did that and man was I thankful, 4 blocks just does not come close to simulating what the real thing is like.
