Should I postpone step 2 Ck?

[Carpe-Noctem]

Hey everyone!

I currently have 2.5 weeks until step 2 ck. I just took uworld assessment 1 and got a 211 (3 digit score). Is 2.5 weeks realistic for me to get into the 220's/230's? Or should I postpone?

Right now I am probably the last test day that would release scores before Sept. 15. So if I do postpone I wont get my scores until after applications are submitted. Thoughts?

Have you taken any other practice exams? try taking the uwsa 2 this weekend and see how that goes. i thought that was more comparative to the vagueness and randomness of the real deal. Also if you are a US grad then maybe you CAN extend it a little, but i know IMG's don't have that leisure. good luck!

What have you gone through so far? OME, UW only?

I've done like 20% of UWorld. Should I just keep doing Uworld?

Keep doing Uworld, making short notes and reviewing them.
If you need some basic knowledge, I'd use OME. They are amazing.
Do it for a week and take another UWSA.
I wouldn't waste time on other resources at this point. I have only 12 days left and still doing UW and reviewing OME and I think it's working (taking UWSA2 this Sat, so we will see)

How do you know the scoring schedule for when it will be released? I've heard in the past something about 3 Wednesdays?
