Listen Okay....Dont depress the many of us here who are struggling to finish everything even one time!!!...You have finished everything 2-3 times...Then go take the test!!!...Take NBME ...and see what score you get ....and assess yourself. If you are scoring high on NBME then you are ready.

well, you already got a very valuable answer. I would suggest to take one online form of NBME and see where you are standing at. Plus, you can see your weakest points and you can work on it. Don't freak out, you still have time to manage your study points, plus, take UW as a studying tool. NBME is the evaluation test, don't underestimate it. I have never heard, that it was wrong.
The bottom line is: take NBME form 4(let's say), and take it, just to see your weak points, and give yourself 2 weeks to work it out,
Best of luck,
L.

you should be scared, if you'll take it one week prior to your test and get low score. You look at it, that you need some guide, because it's hard to assess yourself on your own, but you'll see your weak areas, and you can work on it. Plus, if two weeks you can take another form and see whether you made a progress. Right now, you are studying, and it's a great tool to assess yourself( thanks god, we have it).
Good luck,
L.

seriously, I had an experience of getting a low score on NBME, super low score. But you have to adjust your attitude. I mean, take it not for readiness to the test, but for assessment. And if the score won't be as high as you expected, work hard. It's going to be your kick in the but( he he he). Especially, as you mentioned you are a good student.
