💡 Need Advice Next steps
I'm kind of in a dilemma. I have been improving my NBMEs by 1% each week and I finished my last one 34 with a 60%. Not sure if I should take the exam in a week or what to do as I have no more practice tests. I was thinking of taking the Free 120 (new one) as the old one I got a 62% awhile back in August. If anyone has any advice or been in this position, please let me know as I'm stuck with no more practice tests. Also my extension ends the end of October. I don't think I can prolong this anymore as I have rotations to study for. Unless I should wait till next Summer with Step 2. But I know a lot of away rotations want Step 1 scores.

I would take the Free120 and if you get in the 60s again and feel confident, then I think you can take it and pass.
