well its not true, that if you perform in one subject then the question from the same subject will appear again. Your exam use to be set with in 5 days of your exam date, actually they collect from about 8000 qs for your exam, and thats it. For you, it happens that some one might only remember that areas in which he perform bad, and he will keep on memorizing the questions, that he did it wrong. Its normal. I know one guy who did quiet good in NBME but fail in real exam, 460 in NBME and 180 in real exam. Why did he flunk it?? bxz he told me that he got OVER CONFIDENT. thats why it happens.

Hello everybody, I got my score today, 223=90, Thanks God! I dare not to dream of this. NBME give me exactly my real score. I wanna post my score to relieve anyone that feel frustrate after exam. My advice: u should do all 3 NBME test because i see some Q repeat in my exam.FA is great, stick to it in your last 2w before exam. Kaplan, Q bank & FA are enough for u to score > 90 if u master them. 1 important thing that i've just learned while studying for step 2 : Psychiatry of Step 2 CK is reflect all step 1 Behavior Science content, so, if u have chance, study it b4 u give your step 1 exam. Goodluck!
