honestly , this is very low score and u need atleast 2 months. if u see nbme predicts 10- 15 +/- points.. so think before u take exam. which nbme u took? read F.A and do u-world and pathoma and take nbme in 15 days. if u improve then there is a chance but if not then postponed it. hope it helps.hi i have taken an nbme and i have scored 152. My exam date on September 26. I just need a 192 to pass and go on. Will it possible? what should i only study? please help?

Which NBME # did you take and most importantly, did you buy expanded feedback online? This is crucial to your success, go over your NBMEs. Have you finished Uworld yet? Have you done pathoma? You might have the knowledge, but maybe you aren't too accustomed to the question style. Practice more tests, take another nbme in 2 weeks after reading FA + Pathoma + Uworld.hi i have taken an nbme and i have scored 152. My exam date on September 26. I just need a 192 to pass and go on.

Yes, you can pass it, but it is unlikely that you would get a high score.I know someone who got a passing score with only 1 month of studying Uworld and FA. But bear in mind, just a pass score for an IMG serves no purpose if he wishes to apply for residency in US.
The mbne score itself does not indicate your command of the material, it just reflects the likely score you will get. In this way it could be misleading.
The bars and their length are a better indicators of your command of the material.
This being said if your command of the material is high, then yes you could pass it in a month, but if it is not then you would need more time.
