I think 58% is rather risky

Study two three weeks more

Do NBME and see

If you get a good score then no need for UW again

If not, then do it again (at least the incorrect items only)

Never take the exam until you score 65% in UW or you correlate more than 90 in NBME Period

Repeating any qbank is only useful if you didn't master your primary material
I suggest you read your primary material (Kaplan notes or whatever) again is better than repeating UW questions, because it will not give you a good idea of your performance and it will not add new concepts and tricks to your bank of information.
If at all you want to do more, then do another bank such as USMLERx or if you have the money buy all the NBME Forms and do them all.
