Prep time 2.5 months..use first aid, boards&wards, bluprint series, Step-Up
Kaplan Q book : ~ 67%
Lange's Q book 2006 : 50-84%
UW : cum. 61 % ( range from 55 %, mostly did when sleepy, to 80% near the end)
USMLE CD : ~ 92 % can't remember
NBME form I : 530/ 224
NBME form II: 610/241
Exam taken Jan 17, score reported Feb 7 STEP2 CK : 245/99 
I feel UW , FA and Step-up are the main resources that help me the most and certainly NBME II correlates best to the real score. Try to avoid spending time on what you already know. Thanks to this forum.

hi all and special hu from IMG from europe
USMLE CK 243/98
NBME 530/93 form 3
534/93 form 2
Kaplan 78 overall
Qbank 72 overall
From belgium graduated 2 years back
Used mostly UW very helpul though very hard. First aid, wonderful and USMLE secret is brilliant. Watch for psychiatry which was the hardest part ( i guess we are not well prepared in europe). I will strangly advice to take NMS in psychiatry.
