usmle % help

I am around 82% through the first pass of uworld and averaging around 71% with initial few tests taken subject wise but after that all of them random timed mode. but i have been constant at 70-71 % for quite long and cant see any improvement happening. Can anybody tell me how am i faring on my performance because being an img( though a permanent resident of usa) i am quite anxious and desperately dont want to end up with a lower score!

and also i am planning to take my first nbme next week ...if anyone can tell me which ones i should start with frst...my exam date is around 8 weeks awayFeedback Requested

start with NBME 12 and see how you do. then take nbme 7 3 weeks after that ( nbme 7 is hard so if your score dips it's okay) then take nbme 13 3 more weeks after that or nbme 11...3 days before your actual real exam take nbme 15 and see how you do.

you can always switch 12 and 11. take them all ONLINE don't do that offline bullsh1t

yes it means you are doing good so far. you gotta get your U-world scores into the 80s.

and you have to take an NBME as soon as possible..to see where you are at!
