don't worry those are all solid scores. just take another nbme in 4 days and see how you do. sometimes it's just an off day or you are tired or something. i would definitely take nbme15 3 days before your exam (it's the newest nbme). for the next 4 days keep going over first aid over and over and over again very quickly 3x and don't go by UWSA....always go by nbme. just because you got a 212 doesn't mean you're gonna get a 212...it's always + or - 16....so you might actually get a 222...or whatever you got on 7. you're RIGHT there and you have 2 more weeks. that is A LOT of time to keep reviewing first aid. don't forget to keep doing full blocks of MIXED questions everyday. you should be doing 200 questions a day right now at 2 weeks out.

you need to do random/mixed/timed/ not tutor 200 questions per day to simulate the exam. it will review what you have in your head and strengthen what you already know. don't try to learn any new weird things now. just keep going over the concepts in your head. over and over again so you can use that info for part 1. you must continue doing questions.

how many hours per day are you studying now. 2 weeks from your exam you should be somewhere around 12-13 hours of studying per day.
