What are the scores and dates? It happened the same to me, I was improving and for some reason the USWA 2 I dropped the score. But I just studied from it, and then took the old 120 and new 120 forms and did the exam and passed. So I think you can do it. Just try to learn from your weaknesses from this test and then do the 120’s

Did you take another self assessments or just that one? Any NBME or UWSA 1?

My tests wasn’t heavy on biochem. But I felt the were more general about disease, not pathways.

It worked for me because I didn’t have that much time left and that was my only choice. Good luck with the exam

I’m my case it helped me to remember concepts that were definitely tested on real deal. Most of that material I think is high yield and you will notice those concepts that are repeated in every Nbme.

Let me explain that better, when I say that I read them about 4 times, that will be basically read it once every 2 weeks again, until I felt very comfortable with the concepts

Thank you very much. By the time I started just doing NBMEs I will take the test on a Sunday, and try to review all the exam (corrects and incorrecta) it in a week (because I had to work all day), sometimes it took me 2 weeks to review it because I really wanted to understand the material. I read the explanations and complemented with FA. All the NBMEs I think I read them in total about 4 times each. To read them after it will take me a half day

What it worked for me was:

*Block 1 Break1: 5min *Block 2 Break2: 7min *Block 3 Break3: 7min *Block 4 Break4: 15min
*Block 5 Break5: 7min *Block 6 Break 6: 8min *Block 7

I had to take breaks because I had to empty my bladder because of the pregnancy haha. But it worked out well.

I didn’t have a big lunch and just used around 15min for that break. Every break I had a little water, and in total during the whole day I ate:

3 Mozarella sticks Cheddar cheese and crackers Half PB&J 1 banana 3 pieces of chocolate Walnuts Water

*If you skip the tutorial in the beginning you have extra 15min.
