I am not sure I am in the right place to ask this question but I feel really alone and I don’t know what to do. If I should go ahead with this exam or pushback to end of June. The only issue is I will be doing it after night shift rotation for 2 weeks in June and will have a few days before I do it if I push it back. The exam is scheduled in 8 days. I really don’t know why but I made many stupid mistakes in UWSA2 today I was tired and this has knocked my confidence.

USWA2 score today - 210 UWSA1 - 220 (2 weeks ago) Free 120 old 73% Free 120 new 63% (did this 6 weeks ago) Done all CCS cases with 70% correct

I’m very scared and worried exam is in 9 days and I got 210 today on UWSA.

N + 1 but these were my results:

UWORLD SA1 = 240 (5 weeks out)
NBME 10 = 242 (3 weeks out)
UWORLD SA2 = 256 (6 days out)
Free 120 new = 77% 3 days out

Actual score - 260

What specialty are you trying to do? If it is something competitive I would not take it. I feel like you will be in the 220-230 range. You only want to take this test one time. If you are not ready then that's okay, but also realize that everyone also has a certain limit to what they can realistically achieve. After some point of studying you will hit a plateau. This is when you should feel comfortable taking the test.
