NBME Standard vs Self-paced:Which is best?

[metalrex]

Hey fellas!
Was wondering : when you guys did your NBME tests ,did you use standard format to simulate real test conditons or self-paced to benefit with answer evaluation?

Which one you think is best: Under real test conditons with 4 hrs at a stretch or self paced?

Thanks!

Bruh, for the love of God do not select the standard...i made that mistake when I did nbme 1. If anything time yourself if want to see how you're doing. Then when you are done with the block...do not close that block! Read and understand the questions cuz after you close that block YOU WILL NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN!

I am thinking of doing self paced for my next nbme but this time take screenshots of the question...after all they are the closest thing to the actual exam so why not prep from them

took mine standard, if you plan on going back to review them after each block then go with self paced. I felt it was important i take them timed for a good/accurate assessment
