How did this happen? my nbme scores didn't predict my score. I can't blame anyone but myself, maybe I got to cocky. Could anyone offer some words of encouragement?

Thanks

ps. If I could I would totally retake it...I know I could have done better, Where did I go wrong?
I've been told by PD's, the best way to offbalance a low Step 1 is to take the Step 2 as early as possible and REALLY nail it.
