*panic mode* tomorrow is the day!

[mackaikai]

ok...i'm taking my step 1 tomorrow. and i woke up this morning realizing i don't know anything! i did ok on qbank and NBME and i studied pretty hard for the past month but i still feel like i don't know anything!

i opened up first aid and i was like "wow, i can't even remember these"

*panic mode* turned on by cholera (on-on), or it might be pertussi (off-off)

cAMP level spiking and urinary cAMP level is increased too!

i'm sure my cortisol level is mad high and epinephrine is out the chart

No, you're not. Focus that nervous energy on the test. You've studied really hard and you know a lot. When you get a question that you don't get right away, just take a couple of deep breaths and reread it...you know what the answer should be, just try to figure out what exactly they're asking you.

if you get a question you don't know, you might just want to skip it. a lot times when you come back to it, you'll find that you actually can figure it out but just had a 'brain fart.'

trail mix all the way.....when i took my test, i definitely wasn't very hungry throughout the day, but munching on some good trail mix at every break helped me out tremendously. g'luck

My test is tomorrow too and I feel EXACTLY the same way. How is it possible to study for 6 weeks and know NOTHING?

(Clearly, it's not! We know stuff!)
