After 3 gap years, 4 MCATS (1st attempt 487), and lots and lots of doubt I finally got an A today 🥹🥹🥹 still have 6 more interviews lined up so I’m feeling great

Hi, I am a re-app with zero luck last year. I would love feedback or a review on my 3 essays. I feel my PS is fairly strong but I’m iffy on my other two. Any advice is helpful, I’m feeling very stuck 🥺

I’m 1 week out. I’m working through the SB right now, I’m doing alright ~65% accurate and I know those questions are pretty hard. Also I’m definitely not expecting a 510+ definitely expecting to be in the 500-505 range. Anyways with that accuracy and when doing AAMC cars practice too I am scoring about ~75% I thought I would be breaking 500 but I am doing terrible during FLs
Today I was a little more distracted during FL5 but to get a 494??? I just don’t understand how I’m doing decent while practicing then horrible during FLs. I really just wanna cry. I’m so scared for next week

Of course content is tested in different ways but will I pretty much see everything by going through all the AAMC material?

I have been heavily requiring some kind of fidget while studying and doing FLs and it helps me a lot (especially bc I used to pull out my eyelashes without realizing it 🫩)
I was told it’s not good to rely on a fidget bc they’re not allowed during the test, which is true, but I got the same satisfaction playing with the foam earplugs. Just playing with it on the desk while reading was very helpful, and they allowed me to get a new pair after each break.

SO use what you’re given to your advantage and fidget away!
