I dropped from a 71 on NBME 33 to a 68 on NBME 34, and my exam is in 11 days. Should I postpone it? Here are my scores:

NBME 25: 64
26: 74
Bootcamp SA: 70
27: 73
28: 70
29: 67
30: 72
31: 76
32: 75
33: 71
34: 68

I’m not sure if this is just accumulated fatigue and the 3-point drop is simply noise, but I’m really worried right now. (the nbme platform says I have a 93% probability of passing within a week)

I’d really appreciate hearing from people who have already taken Step 1. What do you think? Any advice? Would you recommend taking another older form (e.g., NBME 24) to see where I stand? I’m planning on doing that next week on Saturday and then on Sunday doing the free120

Hello! I‘m a MS4, going to be a US-IMG. I took Step 1 on 10/21 of last year, I failed. Objectively thinking about it I believe it wasn’t because lack of knowledge, but because I was really really nervous on my exam day, I had a bad mindset and I wasn’t giving my best on taking exam strategies.

I started study again on January of this year, redoing Uworld 40q/day like 5 times/week, sometimes less because in my country we do 24h shifts and my university workload.

Now I have 81% of Uworld done and I have taken this NBMES so far:

NBME 25 - 63% (in 60s% of Uworld)
NBME 26 - 74% (last week)

Im going to start dedicated now, in June. Do you guys have any advice? Do you recommend me to do Bootcamp self assessment? (I already did NBMES 25-32 the first time, so I repeat 25-26, and I’m going to redo 27-32 and do 33 for the first time, but anything that sums up I‘m willing to do it)

I am thinking of letting NBME 33 to be my last before my exam, so it’s going to be more predictive I think. (PD sorry for my grammar mistakes, Spanish is my first language and I tried to not use AI)
