Hi,

I scored a 512 on 9/3. Planning to retake. During my prep I used all AAMC FLs, SBs, and most of the Qpacks. I used about 30% of Uworld. I was pretty consistent with Anki (used Anking).

What should I change about this for my retake? Should I do Anki again? Should I focus more on UWorld and practice questions more? Should I use 3rd party FLs because I already did the AAMC ones? Won't AAMC FL scores be inflated this time around? Lots of questions, don't know what to do in terms of prepping for retake.

Hi,

I got my score back yesterday (tested 9/3), and am just confused on where to go from here. I got a 512 (129/127/127/129), which I know is not a terrible score, but it is pretty low for how I was scoring on FLs leading up to the test. I did especially terrible in CARS which sucks, because I had never scored below a 129 on a FL in CARS.

For context, here are my FLs: 512 / 511 / 516 / 516 / 519 / 522

I was thinking of applying in June, but now don't know what to do. I was hoping to score closer to my FL average, and was needing a competitive score to offset my GPA (3.7) especially as I wanted to apply and go to an in state school (CA).

Should I retake in the spring, or wait and study all of next summer again?
