Getting nervous

I'm about one month away from taking the boards but I'm stuck in the mid 40s range on UWorld (random questions, timed blocks). I've been studying for about two weeks and I'm nervous that I don't have enough time to raise my score. When I started I was around mid 30s, to mid 40s, and now I'm mid 40s, to rarely a low 50.

Any ideas on if I'm prematurely stressing or if I should consider pushing the exam back? I have a trip planned the day after I'm supposed to take it so I really don't want to do that but if I have to I will.

What are you doing after word? are you reviewing your answers?
Are you studying before/ after doing Q's?
Why are you doing them randomly? I know it's personal preference but I prefer to do "focused" blocks so that I can build off of questions and such.

So I wake up every morning and do questions, and then I review questions for about 1.5-2 hours, and then I study after. The only reason I'm doing them randomly is because I'm scared I'm going to forget things after I focus on them so I figure if I keep having to flip back to things I've already done and things I haven't done, it'll keep me more on my toes for those. But I think I might start doing focused blocks at night, because I can see the perks of that too.

Thanks for the responses and encouragement, hopefully I can get up there too!
