I already took NBME #1 and am planning on taking one more before my test. I want to take it 5 days before the real thing. Any advice on whether I should be taking NBME # 2,3, or 4? Thanks!
I took forms 1, 2, and 3. I got a 234 on form 1 approx 6 weeks out, a 238 on Form 2 about 4 weeks out and a 258 on form 3 5 days prior to the exam. I got a 251 on the NBME's and they say that you should do within 10 points either way on the real thing if you read the bottom of the score report. It was true in my case and I think that 3 was the most representative although they are all different. I have the same exact strengths and weaknesses on all 3 so it will tell you where you are weak pretty accurately. Take all if you have time- it couldn't hurt.... Just my opinion.
That's an amazing score on #3...I took form 1 6 weeks before and got a 228, but I'll be thrilled if I get within 10 points of you. Hell, I'd be satisfied with 230.
