Hi folks,
I will be graduating next week and I want to start preparing for my mcat which is on the 21st of june. I have been studying on and off.. I just have 40 days.My anxiety does not let me sleep at night,like right now ! My heart rate goes really high and I cannot sleep at night! I am so scared of performing poorly on the test! I need to do well on this test.I feel like I need more content review.I've been watching chads videos and I still need to go through organic chemistry and physics. I have all the books berkeley tpr examkrackers.can anyone give me a good plan for content and practice tests for these last few days? I would really appreciate it thank you so much!

Wash, rinse, repeat. This really depends on what your definition of "doing well" is, though, but will be fine for the 30~35 point range. 40+ and you'll need to actually be learning all the stuff in those books.
I'm also registered for the June 21st exam, but unlike the OP, I have only 34 days to study.

I was thinking of reviewing the contents (using EK mostly) during the first 10 days, and then take the first AAMC FL. After that I will be working on my weaknesses for 2 days (using ek 1001 and TBR), and then, take another AAMC. Rinse and repeat 6 times.

Is it really necessary to take a FL before reviewing? I don't have specific weak spots, because at this point, everything is my weak spot. I really don't want to shake my confidence prematurely.

OP: Sorry for intruding, but I thought we could both benefit from my question.
