Hi! I am planning to take my exam in a month. I just took NBME 2 and scored 340. My NBME 1 was 300. What should I focus on? Is first aid and reading Goljan notes again enough? Can I improve my score within one month? I am getting 50-62's in Kaplan Q bank. Any comments would help. Thanks.

How much r u aiming at?
If you just wanna pass, u can def. do it in a month, bt u'll hav to study 12 hrs or so...put in your max. effort.Memorise thngs only when u understand them completely.
FA with Goljan notes plus if you can listen 2 a couple of lectures (kaplan or goljan) that'll b the way to go.

Ok Thanks for the advice. I will probably study for another month and 1/2 and take NBME form 3 and see where I stand. Thanks again.
