Actually, the post in "anyone not able to study..." is all about anxiety. Self-hypnosis apps and stuff like that. Who knows if it works but it definitely can't hurt to try. I've been playing those as I fall asleep.
Maybe a virtual study buddy (or group) would be helpful since your town is so small (I grew up in one of those kinds of towns so I feel ya).
Also, on the thread about going from a 26 to a 43 (and I think on the 30+ thread as well), there are some motivational videos you might want to check out. Plus just some positive self-talk usually helps with anxiety. And don't forget to take time to take stock of the little victories, like getting above score X on a passage, or getting the problems right in the BR chapters, little t hings. Or maybe make a list of all the things that you are looking forward to once this exam is over (some great examples on this thread).
Or push your exam date out further so you don't have to read as much BR each day. I think a combination of all these things will help you. Just stay positive as much as possible, b/c having a bad feeling going into it is not going to help w/retention/etc of the material.
For me, it was really difficult at first to keep doing it and I wanted to take break days every other day and I was totally discouraged by my BR scores and also sick, but now that I've gotten in the habit, I can't say I jump out of bed looking forward to doing MCAT stuff, but I somehow just feel kinda neutral and don't resist as much. So, I think just to keep doing it is important. Keep on keepin' on.
In fact I am going to go do some BR reading right now...then doing holiday stuff later.
). IDK, all of these factors are important to me. I want to just move on and relax for a bit before application season and before med school.
