hi everyone,
i'm 5 days from my test. and i really dont know what to think any more. here's my census and i would reaaly appreciate it if any one would help me .
i can't read a word any more ,whenever i try reading anything i feel that i'm studying again from scratch...
i took nbme form 3 last week : 620/244
nbme form 4 2 days ago:620/244
nbme form 6:580/236
UW cumulative with 22% unused : 65%
my questiion is should i worry coz of the drop of the nbme score instead of improving (bear in mind that i didnt revise anything,and i can't revise anything any more)
plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ,should i take nbme form 2 or that's enough?????
thanks everyone ,and good luck to all .

Seriously, your scores are pristine, you're ready. I think another NBME would be a waste of money in your case. I think you're going to rock this test.

jazak(y) ALLAH koll kher for your reply.
i hope those nbmes aren't misleading or anything ,coz i know i'm very weak in pharmacology always 50% in UW and i can't remember the drugs ,besides some parts i didnt even do in the bio ..
that's where my confusion and insecurity comes from.
and most of my answers are educated guessing as they call it !!!!
what should i do in the next 5 days????????????
thanks again for you and for anyone else who'd give some advice

You NBME scores are very indicative of how you should expect to perform on the test. Those scores are very good, mashallah. I would just do very light review at this point, flip cards for pharm and some practice questions. The day before the test don't touch a book. Everyone that has done well on their test literally just relaxed the day before and went to see a movie. Get to bed early and mkae sure to get in at least 7 hours, this is an endurance marathon, not a sprint.

thanks again for your reply, i really appreciate it.
i'm taking a UW test every day with 50 unused and random. but the range is huge ,oe day i get 68% the next day 77% and the saga goes on!!!!!1
the problem is that i've finished already all the anatomy,histology ,embryo,and bio questions like 2 months ago ,so all the generated tests mainy pharm,physio and patho. which means i havent gone through bio for a long time. itried going theu the first aid ,but i just couldnt read a page of bio, though managed to read micro ,and guess what the micro rates droped from 90 to 50%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
is that an indication not to read naything no more???? and if so what should i do for the next 4 days.i trieed the relaxation technique. but everyone knows better ,u just cant relax at this point
dont get me wrong ,i'm 29 years old and i've been through alot of tests ,including step 2(which i passed with a very low score 79 ) and the cs which i passed,and u know all those tests we had to take in our med schools,,,but i never ever freaked out like this before...always managed to put a schedule and at least read some stuff before any test. at least my weak points.,,,
but at this point of time ,its like my brain is paralyzed... i feel pathetic
really sorry if i just opened up and bothered anyone with my thoughts and feelings,,but anything to read from ppl who've been through what i'm going through right now would be for the least relieving..
thanks to all ,and good luck to everyone ...
