My exam is two weeks out, and my organic chemistry background is shaky. I've already read the TPR organic review book 2 times through, did some passages, but I still get nervous.

What should I do to beef it up in the next two weeks?

I've scored 10, 12, and 10 on the BS sections of AAMC exams I've taken so far.
 
Watch Chad videos and/or read EK OC. Remember that you can void if you get an OC heavy section.

Thanks!

I scoring 10-12 on the BS section, missing careless mistakes on ochem passages that are not the result of knowledge deficiency.

I am betting on at most 2 ochem passages. Don't most modern tests have around one?

Honestly you should have been prepping from the start with the attitude that your entire BS section could be organic. I'm serious. And there's no reason to think you couldn't realistically get three organic passages, it has occurred within the last year.

I see. But I've been scoring 10-12 on BS sections of AAMCs, and the organic chemistry questions I missed were due to careless mistakes/arrogance rather than lack of knowledge. So my content base should be adequate.

I should also mention that I've read through TPR organic chemistry review book twice already. So I am NOT neglecting the subject.
