please I need help.....,

just finished with NBME-2 with score 360 .......,my exam is in 5 days and I have no option to postpone......,

many thanks in advance ....

please,if any one has any comment it will be most helpful now......,

please tell me something,even if I'm an idiot to wait till now to get NBME done.....,

I forgot to say that,my usmle cd scores are 23,28,26......,and my uw cumulative is 51 %.....,
is there any hope...just want the truth

360 is really low for a FMG , it is not the matter of passing in this exam.Practically there is no diff between failed and a score of < 200.

I bet your score in the real exam won't be better than 200 even if you pass,

Postpone the exam for a while!

thanks nightflight for answering me......,
unfortunately I don't have the option to postpone it cause I'm 5 days before my test and so I passed the dead line for postponing or canceling......
so now,I know I'm gonna take this test in 5 days no way out...,but feeling horrible.....
I studied well but needing to revise as I'm a frequent forgetter,and I didn't revise before taking NBME and I think this is the cause of the bad score , but I'm just afraid to believe that, and afraid that the remaining 5 days will not be available to revise everything.....
sorry guys to bother you .....but I'm in desperate need for any word....

You can pay a fine and postpone your exam as much as you like ,

in my opinion it is cost-effective if you want to prevent spending thousands and traveling long hours and eventually not finding a match!

It is not just the exam , when you become ECFMG certified the story begins and u may regret for what you've done before.

However it is obvious that you are the only who's entitled to make the decision.

Excuse me if I'm somehow frank.

postpone the exam..
u shouldnt give the exam with this projected score ( which shows below passing)
and ur confidence level for the exam will be automatically low.. so think wisely..
a 100$ now to reschedule wont be that damaging as a poor score
