I studied for 4 and a half months..
I used kaplan videos and lectures, goljan audio and lecture notes.... First aid .. just a week before the exam.. just brushed through it....

UWorld (2 months ) - avg score 65 percent
NBME 7 and 15 ( 2 weeks before exam ) - 215

The exam felt a lot more to me like UWorld than NBME....

Anything else,,, please ask...

Congratulation!
How many hours a day, did you study?
Did you work(or do other time consuming activities)during the same time?

Thanks!
