since NBMEs are timed, simulating the real test, then how we can take screenshots, save them....etc? You only have one minute or so for each question so how you can do it?
Extended feedback.
PrntScr and crop them at the end of the exam.
If you're using offline exams or NBME5 (no EF available), figure out which ones are wrong, then do the same as above.

I should just point out that going through your old NBME questions when approaching the real deal will be unequivocally beneficial.
I had had 252 and 254 on NBMEs 6+7 at 12 and 11 days-out, respectively.
Then I went back through my old NBME questions from forms 1-5 from my Powerpoint, as well as the incorrect ones from 6+7, and then had jumped to 264, 266 and 264 on NBMEs 13, 12 and 11, respectively, at 8, 6 and 4 days-out.
I had said in my PDF that 11-13 had risen above 6+7 because of sleeping more (which was very true), but it was, in retrospect, also most certainly because I calibrated to the NBME question-style significantly and stopped over-thinking as much.
When you go with your gut, you'll start getting many more questions right. This saved me on the real USMLE.
Sometimes the answer really is just asthma, not bronchioloalveolar carcinoma. Asthma.
Calibrate.
Go with your gut.
Stop over-thinking crap.
Sleep.

= 10-point jump.
Done deal.
Doing many NBME exams is important. It will teach you what you should expect to get based on how you're functioning that day. With NBME12, I didn't make any errors. The questions I got wrong were all minutiae. With forms 11+13, I had one stupid error on each of them. Forms 6+7 both had a surfeit of mishaps.
If you want to make fewer errors, rapid-click your answers on the real deal. This means: read the question, instantly click what you feel is right, spend another several seconds quickly confirming that thought process, then stop yourself from psychoanalyzing.
