Shaina, I guess you don't have test scheduled in 10days and need to finish 1000Qs in a few days I don't know about Robin, but I think it is all about the pressure, I was like you, actually I was less productive than you are even a couple of weeks ago. I wish I had more time left!

you are welcome Shaina. good luck with your study. Today I managed to do 250qs, but feel like it didn't retain much today. Less than 3 days left for my LAST subscription for UW, still have ~700Qs to go. Will do the best I can!

be cool and confident! surely, you will do great in your exam. do remember: do not change correct to incorrect! this was my mistake when I took my step1. now I follow the first aid suggestion, it is much better than before. have a look for test-taking strategies in first aid, may helpful. wish you good luck!

robin, with such a hard work and excellent NBME score, what are you nervous about ? I should be the one feels nervous. I am so scared to take the NBME form 1 next week(took form 2 on feb 26th, only 470 ). What if I have an aweful score, and I cannot reschedule this test anymore because I have my CS scheduled on May 5th. And I need to back to work on April 2nd...

I review the tests I did before(like tutor mode). I read the contents that I am not very familiar with, sometime make notes on the FA, but very few lately. I also skip a lot.
