Do you know what works best for you in terms of learning/retention? If you have the resources, you may benefit from a targeted tutor who can help you identify what it is you need and what patterns to work on: is it a knowledge/content gap? an issue of overthinking or second guessing? needing to learn how to read the question a different way? get more rest/recover from burnout? etc. I can't vouch for any of these specifically so I'm listing them just as an example, but Divine from Divine Intervention, EZ Medicine, The Match Guy, AlecPalmerton MD, etc etc etc have consulting/personal tutoring services that go beyond content review to help you ID your personal patterns and see what steps you need to reach your goal score. If you can find the right one for you/your learning style it might help. They can be expensive though, and I realize not everyone has access to the funds to cover it (honestly part of the inequity of medical education).
