I dont know to much about nbme - but I dont think 370 is great - but its not bad.
I have also heard that Nbme 4 is the hardest one.
I think if u work on your weak areas and work hard between now and december then you might be able to raise it enough to pass.
Did u do Qbank? or RX or UW? Did u do first aid?

Hey Atoviva,
Did you take other NMBE forms? How did you do in those?
I will take my test in Dec too. I took NBME form 2 last week and got only 400. Only 25% done in q bank. When I analyse the situation,
1) I made a lot of careless mistakes as I did not read questions well..confused in some points even though I know (like type 1 & 2 -which is for what)...
2) Need to read a bit more outside of FA, Kaplan and Goljan. Like 25% are out of those.
Do hope we can make it after correcting these mistakes. Will take NBME 3 after next 2 weeks. Do analyse your situation and come up with a strategy. Hope you can do it.

anything under 400 is not a safe margin.
