My test is in a 13 days and I've spent the last 3 months preparing and I'm starting to get the nerves. I'm getting more nervous about the exam and almost paranoid about getting questions wrong on practice sections and it's really taking a toll on me. I find myself second guessing myself or sometimes blanking out for a few seconds during my practice exams.
I've been using qvault, did the destroyers twice, Bootcamp, CDR, and Chad's.
Here's my current itinerary (opinions are welcomed!): I plan on taking the 2009 in 2 days (been saving this one), a topscore in 4 days, and lastly, the 2007 (used this as a benchmark back in december) in 6 days. Planning to follow up all of that with a massive review.
Below is a list of my scores so far and I think I'm on the right track. But what worries the crap out of me and is nearly driving me insane is missing questions or getting bludgeoned by a clown in the cereal box question (often seen in qVault) and losing tons of points for it.
For qVault,
GC: 21/21/29/29/21/21/21
BIO: 22/20/22/23/21/21/20
Bootcamp (each exam was taken at full length):
BIO: 25/ 26/ 22/ 23
GC: 26/ 21/ 25/ 24
ORGO: 22/ 20/ 22/ 29
PAT: 19/ 20/ 20/ 21 (Much harder keyholes and TFE compared to CDP)
RC: 18/ 19/ 19/ 23 (Boosted my score a ton when I started using vicvipers S&D method)
QR : 19/20/20/21 (Seems much different from MD, definitely harder with more algebra and stat problems)
CDP: 17/19/22/21/24/22/23/24
CDR: 18/18/19/18/21/20/21
I really didn't mean to type so much, I guess I'm venting. I'm losing focus, losing confidence, and second guessing myself. All in all, I'm feeling a lot of anxiety and stress. My greatest fear is that I'll underperform on the real exam.
Any advice? Should I take a night off and go out?
How did you guys feel in the weeks prior to the exam and how did you cope?
