SA2 :239, NBME21:223,, Exam in 11d, postpone??

[Ahmad dono]

Hi all, my 1st post here, so yah hopefully i will get something out of it,
Im done with uw/fa first run, but fell that i know the concepts but not fully memorizing each and every piece of info. During the 1st run did nbme 15: 207, then 16:205 (it tooks me long time because im currently on rotations and so on)

After the 1st run (two week ago) i did Amboss and i got 241, with alot of mistakes, so i worked on them and did sa2 (one week ago) and i got 239.

On the past week i started the 2nd run uw (random) and finshied around 25% of it with avarage of 85% then decided to do nbme21 (yesterday) and unfortunately got 223

Target is 250+


What do you think i should do now

1- continue on uw random and try to finish it in 1 week then review fa on the other week ( not sure if its effective like im done with 25% with average of 85%, but got that bad mark on nbme 21)

2- set and memorize fa first then go back to uw (not sure if the info will stick or i will be just reading)

3- postpone the exam (can have 2 extra weeks, then my rotation exams will start =_=)

4- other thing on your mind you think its a better option

thanks

postpone and take more nbmes. you need to build up stamina. 85% on uworld is good so that should reflect much higher nbme scores

Your score as it stands is closer to 235 than it is to 250.
You either have a knowledge deficiet or test taking problem. Analyze your most recent test and figure that out. You should be getting closer to 240+ consistently on NBME exams if you want a 250+ score.

Second pass of uworld is naturally going to be overinflated.
