Hi!
I'm studying for the MCAT and have under a month until my scheduled date. I'm a full-time student, but with a much lighter schedule than I'm used to and have been aiming to devote ~5 hours a day and 30 hours a week to studying. I've been studying consistently for about 2.5 months. I'm not seeing much improvement in my FLs even though I have noticed improvements in my UWorld % accuracy. I consistently do Anki - the MileDown's MCAT deck. I recently started using the AAMC practice questions and plan to take another full length on Saturday. My section scores are pretty similar and fluctuate between FLs.
I'm a very good student and have always been able to manage my time well. I wouldn't consider myself someone who is a "bad-test-taker", but I feel like I'm missing something in my studying to have a breakthrough. I'm also considering rescheduling (goal score: 515+), but rescheduling would mean delaying my schedule and leaving less time for applications. I don't want to reschedule because I think I can do it, just looking for guidance.
Has anyone been in this position and what helped you? If anyone could share intense study schedules for about a month before their exam that would be really helpful too!
Thanks!
