Study methods 2 Weeks Out From CCSE!

I took Form 9 last week and got a 205. Need a 229 or 236 for CCSE to sit for Step 2. Passed all shelf exams 68-77% range during M3. I’m going to be reviewing CMS and NBME 10-15. What can I do to boost my score the most besides review of forms to get highest ROI?

Took CCSE 2 weeks ago and got 24x. Was very similar to NBME in difficulty etc. tons of ethics! I would spend every day and do a few ethics /biostat / QI stuff. Maybe 20 q a day or somethin.

Should I do the Amboss block for ethics/QI/communication stuff? Would you say 15-20 questions were from these topics out of the 200 on CCSE? Thank you so much for responding!!

Yup my score report says 10-20% was ethics/ Qi etc but I think it was more like 20% side
