Hello All,

I finished UWorld second time at 72%. My exam is on 31st Oct which is also the last day of my slot.

My concern was about a self assessment to take before exam. I took UWSA more than 2 months ago and scored a 195. I wanted to retake one self assessment today to gauge my preparation. Considering most folks believe UWSA is the best self assessment available, should I retake UWSA .

Do you think I might get a skewed result on UWSA as I took it before or rather should I just go for NBME 4.

Also, for the folks who have taken the exam, what would you advise for the last two days in terms of studying ?

Is it worth the time to breeze through MTB 2/3/secrets or doing only UW educational objectives is the best use of time ?

Any advice will be greatly welcome.

I would go for NBME 4 rather than redoing UWSA. You are likely to remember at least few questions from your last attempt thus UWSA would not portray an accurate picture if you are trying to gauge where you stand. As for prep during last 2 days, I just went over the incorrect/marked on Uworld. Other thing you can do is, do the NBME and review subjects that you did most poorly in. Good luck on the 31st.

Thanks. Appreciate your reply.
