Hi there,

My exam is exactly in one week from now.
I did UW Qbank twice , first my accumulative was 57% and the second im in 76% with the last 10 blocks performance average 85% . Still have around 20% left to be done from the second pass tho.
My problem is that i have bad history with the self assessment exams, the last NBME form 1 scored 210. 1 week ago.
Im having an average of ,at least, 7 min remaining in each block (UW).

Im seeking for an advice regarding my readiness for the exam, assuming i dont have the option of postpone 😕!.

Thanks!

What's your UWSA ?
If you haven't already taken it then take it and decide since it is best available predictor for Step2CK.
Go through this thread which will help you decide.

Yes 211 two months ago.
Do you think i should retake it again or its considered a burn card?

What kind of score are you looking for in CK?
Have you taken Step 1 yet? If yes, what was your score?
Taking UWSA again won't be of that much help but might be useful since you took it 2 months ago depending on other factors.

What about NBME 2 & 4?

 

[surgmed]

No NBME 🙂
My step 1 was 211.
What factors?.

Your target score in CK

230s

230s

Take UWSA again + another NBME (preferably 2 or 4 as these are the latest) and see if can get close to your target score of 230. If you have been actively preparing for the test since you took UWSA then you have a very good chance of getting 230.

NBME1 score of 210 means nothing IMHO so don't be bothered about it.
