I am not an expert, and I haven't take my exam. I would suggest you to postpone the exam because a 300 is considered failing. Study for at least one more month. UW (USMLE Wold) is good and really hard, and people have complemented; they think that it's the closest to the real exam. After you're done with UW qbank, take the NBME to see where you stand.

hi cd, sorry to hear that! but yes, 300 is tooo low to go for the actual thing. I think 370 would relate to a tight pass and 400 or more would be much more comfortable. so I would say postpone it, ideally for at least 1 month (if your period allows it) and go for UW especially the explanations. but in the end it's your decision... you can do it buddy! you just need more focused hard study!

Postpone your exam! Revise your weak areas and understand why you got low scores. It is unbelievable, UNBELIEVABLE. You have finished all important materials but your performance is so low, tactics may be your problem.
