Which NBME is recommended as an initial diagnostic exam? What exams are good to take after the diagnostic?
All of them. If you can't afford all of them, then do 11, 12, 13.
Up to you. They are a good source of questions, their predictive capabilities notwithstanding. I had a 6 week dedicated period, I've done 3 NBMEs, 2 UWSAs, and I'll do one more NBME before my exam next week.
Cool have you been doing one each week? Any recommendations for which NBMEs to do? 11, 12, 13 I have heard -- any particular order?
