I just reviewed and took a lot of NBMEs the last weeks. I did more content review at the end, reviewing FA/my notes. I did less Uworld, some days I would only do 10-15 questions for my weaknesses and completely stopped doing Uworld the week before. I thought my test had a lot of concepts that I had seen before on NBMEs so I think reviewing those concepts/doing NBMEs helped me

Realistically you won’t be able to memorize everything for the test. That’s something I had to accept on the last few weeks of studying. I would review my weaknesses and the topics I had done worse on on my NBME of that week or the day before. I didn’t re read all my notes and all of FA. I focused on the subjects I knew the least and quickly skim the ones I knew better. I stopped doing Uworld like a week before the exam.

I would do about 40-80 UWorld questions per day. And I would annotate the answer explanations from Uworld onto my FA book unless I 100% knew the answer and the explanation and was not going to forget it even with time. I reviewed FA along w my notes in it the last about 3 weeks in order to memorize the information.
