I'm in the same boat as you. I have my third try Saturday but it's been a year tackling the rest of the exams before coming back to this one.
Definitely don't neglect the vignette. I thought the same thing on my second try and got the mysterious level 3 which seems to happen to a lot of people on this forum. NCARB always trys to trip you up with the wording on this one, so definitely practice and read Bed Rudger's tips. Be methodical and I would suggest using all the time to check, recheck, and recheck to be sure everything is perfect. It's tough to sit there after a long exam but I really kicked myself for not catching my fatal error last time.
For MC your list of study materials seems similar to mine so I hope we are both on the right track! I've seen people suggest the C401, so I plan to skim that. Also I'm going to hit some items I still feel shaky on in Professional Practice by Paul Segal (had it on the bookshelf from college). I also find Caroline's notes to be a great cram tool to hit all the big ticket items in a short amount of time.
Good luck!
