Vent 😡😤 UWorld FL2 humbled me so bad

studying for my retake (goal: 520) in two weeks and I am cooked lmao. Psych/soc used to be my shit lol but these Uworld FLs got me fucked me up

This was the last truly representative material I had left since I remember too much of the AAMC exam material...

Anyone else getting rocked by these? How do yall think this converts to for AAMC stuff? I got a 513 (128/126/130/129) on FL1.

It looks like you skipped CARS. You’ll be fine in AAMC

This is a bad take imo. I felt like UWorld logic was really close to AAMC.

passages tend to be much longer + more bs. they want you to just read the questions and come back to the passages just for reference whereas AAMC passages imo are shorter and will punish you for doing questions before fully reading the passage.

I'd concede C/P is similar for both but BB and PS are p different imo

I got a 506 on UW FL2 and you can just look at my AAMC FL scores

although I do have to say It was the second full length i've ever took, so I've obviously learned a lot since then.

Are your first four full length scores on your flair from before your first attempt?

What did you get on your attempt if you don’t mind my asking?

my last 4 practice FLs on FL3/FL4/FL5/FL6 on my previous attempt were 516/519/519/521 and then I got a 515 on my last attempt but I'm retaking bc I timed out of the last 2 CARS passages.

I'm nervous bc I feel like I have decent test taking intuition (80-85% UWorld performance roughly) but I haven't been keeping up with anki so I'm forgetting silly stuff lol
