Does anything think it worth while to do the self paced NBME and time myself... and then with the extra time go back and look up questions and answers... That I think ive gotten wrong... or just dont know what they were looking for?

I like the expanded feedback on NBME form 4. It shows you which ones you got wrong. Then you can look those up if need be.

Personally, I wouldn't try to look up questions on an NBME as I'm going through. I've found that of the questions I miss, only 1/2 or so were ones I'd flagged. The rest were one's I'd missed some detail in the stem that changed the meaning.

Thanks Depakote I was leaning that way.

does most people look up the answers to these nbme's? or do most people just do them to see where their score is?
