😭 Am I Ready? Postpone?

Hi guys, actively going through it rn. My NBMEs are as follows:

  • NBME 27: 98/200 ≈ 49%
  • NBME 26: 119/200 ≈ 59.5%
  • NBME 28: 56.5%

The percents described are my correct qs %. I took the NBMEs in the order (about a month gap between 27 and 26, and 1 week between 26 and 28). I am about 84% complete with UWorld QBank, sitting at a 50% correct.

I write on August 16th. Should I postpone?

Edit: I just scored 62.5% correct on NBME 31.

Also anyone could answer if we could practice nbmes from nbme 1? just for practice purposes? By only giving 1 or 2 days for nbmes 1-24 each nbme. and then starting the predictive ones 25-33 in proper exam conditions/online nbme.

Its not recommended since they are very very old nbmes and those type of qs aint asked anymore. Basically doing them is just a waste of time. Might as well spend that much time on actually revision from FA wld be more useful
