My Step 2 is in a few days, and I'm only going to be like 3/4ths done with UWorld, averaging 68% overall, usually in the 70's lately. My Step 1 was in the upper 230s, so in order to keep from hurting my application, I need 240-250+ on Step 2. Should I wait, or am I probably safe to take it now?

I'm usually a decent test taker, but I'll be going into the test with hundreds of unused UWorld questions, which makes me nervous. What do you guys think? I just don't want to hurt my application by scoring worse than I did on Step 1.

Take NBME4 or UWSA. If you are satisfied with you score, take it. If not, delay.

EDIT: Thanks for that suggestion. I didn't realize how accurate those were, so I'm going to try UWSA today. Wish me luck!
