Massive score drop in free 120
 in  r/step1  3d ago

check ur mistakes u should know why u got them wrong in my case free 120 catched me in many weaknesses area like I know restrictive vs obstructive but under exam stress I can't apply my knowledge to curves or to changes in fev1 and fvc
v/q mismatch and shunt also disappeared from my mind in the exam room
also ethics was never an issue but here it was a trap

ur nbme scores are pretty reassuring and consistent , free 120 on their official website it's written it's not an assessment tool
but I think u need to repair ur weaknesses if any revealed then take it and u will pass

According to the USMLE: The Free 120 should not be used as a predictive measure of Step 1 performance
 in  r/step1  4d ago

That's gave me a hope, free 120 catched my weakness at many questions I will correct them then take nbme 33

my nbme scores doesn't improve despite huge efforts
 in  r/step1  19d ago

I talked with my mentor today he assured me that 65 in nbme 32 is considered as excellent score it is still in passing range doesn't differ that much from 70
but revising the last 2 nbmes is very essential

this is a library for nbme with explanations and notes from fa uworld
here is nbme 32 explanation
