Hi everyone, I'm currently 2.5 weeks away from my scheduled test date (which I am strongly considering moving to a later date in March) but I am having an immense amount of trouble improving my score. I have no problem when it comes to the actual content we need to know in all 3 science sections. I've taken 7 full length tests (5 from TPR, 1 AAMC, and 1 Next Step Prep) and my score has been very static. I started out at a 491 before I took the Princeton Review course in July and over the course of studying for the last 5 months my score has only increased to 499...which is horrible and completely frustrating. Upon reviewing my full length tests I realized that I missed majority of the questions for misreading either the passages or the questions themselves, so I initially thought maybe I'm going too fast and I should slow down, which I did for the last 2-3 tests with very slight improvement in my latest score, but I run out of time and have to rush through the last 8-10 questions.
I'm not sure what to do next as I have continuously reviewed content, formulas, pathways, etc. and since these do not seem to necessarily be my issue I think it is my actual test taking strategies, or lack of strategies. Does anyone have any resources, recommendations, or suggestions on what I can do? I know 2.5 weeks is very unrealistic for my goal of a 510-515 but I'm stuck and I don't know how to proceed forward.
Additionally, I am currently a part-time scribe and since I had thought I would be taking my test before February I came into agreement during the time of my hiring (in September) that I could transition to full time, which has been placed into effect. I'm considering putting in a 2 weeks notice as I do not see any chances of improving my score as I work full time but I'm worried that ScribeAmerica won't be willing to rehire me in the future. Does anyone have any advice about this?
