What did you all do with <24 hours before the test? I can't bring myself to study anymore! And I even took most of yesterday off, too. I think I might review pharm for a couple of hours this afternoon. Any other tips or insight would be greatly appreciated 😀
 
Sounds good to me, a couple of hours should be fine. Rent a good movie, relax (meditate - envisioning that 250+), and have faith in what you have done. I did the wrong thing and studied on the way to the test to give FA pharm and micro another run. This is the very first and last time I have ever opened a book the same day of a morning test. Try hard not to think about what you do not know at this point, just do what you can to stay rested & relaxed (easier said than done). Good luck Claire, I'll be pulling for ya. 😉
 
GO TO A MOVIE. Get out of the house. I found that by staying around the house it was too easy to sneak up to my room to study. Get away and relax, then go to bed early so you are fresh for tomorrow.
 
If you're sick of studying then by all means get out of the house or do something relaxing. If you feel the need to do some 11th hour studying, then just go over a few high yield facts dealing with things aren't very intuitive for you (for me it was some biochemical pathways, etc, or stuff that wouldn't stay in my head for more than 24 hours).

Good luck tomorrow, both Clair and Alex! Be sure to let us know how it went
