Practice exams every day before test to get in test taking mode??

I'm trying to plan out my schedule for my last week before my April 4th exam. I have about 10 days and I'm planning on doing a quick condensed content review of chapters I've already studied/ done problems on about 3 times (through SN2) and taking AAMC 10 and 11.

I should be done with all this content review/ the last two AAMC's by saturday of this week. That leaves me with sunday-wednesday before the test. I really want to get into test taking mode, since that always works for me when I take finals (and helps decrease my anxiety). But at the same time, I dont want to burn out. Any suggestions? What has worked for you guys?

Btw, these tests would be TBR or TPR. I'm hoping that seeing hard passages the few days leading up to the test will help decrease my anxiety on the test (since itll probably be harder than AAMC). I'm already used to difficult passages since I did all of TBR gen chem/physics, but I finished those about a month ago:/

Thanks for your help🙂

Have you taken all the other FLs from TBR and AAMC? Did you finish all the TBR passages for phases I, II, and III? How have you been scoring on them? If you've been scoring well, I'd say just do light content review the last few days before your exam. You don't want to burn out and not do as well on the real exam.

I've done all three phases and I'll be done with all aamcs on the Saturday before my test. Im worried about walking into my test Thursday without seeing passages or problems for about a week prior. I saw some people wrote on the +30 thread tht they did tests the few days before and it helped them be focused/ ready for test day. Can't decide if this would help feel comfortable with test taking on test day or just really exhaust me!!
