Passed with low NBMEs
I’m writing to hopefully give some reassurance to those who feel like they failed or about to test without extraordinary nbmes.
I tested recently with my highest nbme being 66% a week before the exam and scored a 78% on the free 120 2 days before the real deal ( i thought it was a glitch), but on average my nbmes were consistently above a 60%.
on test day I THANKFULLY didn’t have any anxiety and it felt like i was giving another nbme even though the first 8 blocks were hell, didn’t understand most of it and just made educated guesses ( on average was flagging 7-8 questions on every block). Walked out feeling confused couldn’t recall anything but after 4 dreadful weeks i finally got the P!!
So to everyone with low to average nbmes as long as you are consistently scoring in the passing range and give the real deal with a sound and calm mindset you will definitely pass!! I didn’t freak out when i would hit a hard block and i feel like that helped me a lot with passing. To everyone recently or waiting for the p goodluck!! you guys got this!!
