Suggestions for 7 weeks of Step Prep

Hey,

So I'm basically starting my prep and my test is 7 weeks away. I plan to study full time for the next 7 weeks.

I am just looking for high yield things that worked for people and didn't work.

So far my plan is as follows:
FA 1X + Pathoma 1X until Sept 25th
Basically organ system based review with a little of micro/biochem, embryology, behavioral science, and psych thrown into the mix.

During that time 2 blocks of UWorld/day

Sept 25th- Oct 24th DIT 2X
with 2 blocks UWorld/day

After that I will have 7 days left till test day. I was thinking about doing an NBME before I start DIT and do a few after I finish DIT. This plan should get me through UWorld 2X.
Any suggestions on which NBMEs to take and what to do for the 7 days before test? Should I relisten to pathoma on 1.7X?

Should I even bother with doing DIT twice? Or is there something else I should focus on?

Currently my Uworld score (on things I have reviewed, albeit I'm missing the things I haven't reviewed) is 62%

Suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks
VP

I would strongly recommend doing FA cramming + some UWorld review during the last few days. I tore the binding off my FA and threw away pages that I was comfortable with each time I went through it in that last week and by the final day I only had 3 to take with me to the exam.
