Taking MCAT on Friday (4/5) and I took AAMC FL1 last Saturday and scored 510 (128/128/127/127). Took AAMC FL2 yesterday (Tuesday) and scored 506 (127/127/126/126)? I'm not sure what happened because I felt like I had improved on content. My goal score is 510 so I'm feeling pretty discouraged. What can I do in the next 2 days to keep my score closer to FL1 than FL2? (I've done all the qpacks- is it better to spend my time doing SB which would be new or just reviewing what I've already done?)

You should be spending time reviewing the concepts you got wrong on your practice exams. Watch full Khan Academy sections dedicated to concepts you got wrong on your exam. Ie. If you got 1 question wrong on reproduction, watch the entire Khan Academy MCAT section on reproduction. Do this for every question you got wrong. If you have time, supplement these videos with practice questions from review books if you have them.

You should have already finished Section Banks since you are 2 days out from your test. Since it's impossible to finish them all and review every wrong question in 1 day, go over wrong concepts on the full length exams and qpacks.

Spend your last day relaxing since you can't do much when it comes to learning on your last day.

Good luck!

Edit: I was just reminded of the void button. Applicants tend to score around the average of their AAMC FLs but this is not always the case. If you have money to dish you can consider voiding the exam and taking it in May if you feel it did not go well.
