Guys I rly need help studying

Hi everyone, so I just got my score back and I am super bummed. My goal was a 440 but I got a 430. I’m wanting to retake it maybe mid October to late October but now I am super duper nervous. I just wanted to ask what people think I should change?

So for both attempts this was my strategy:
Bio: Anki every day, and then just take the practice tests
Gen chem: question banks and then practice tests
Orgo: some question banks & practice tests
Math: practice tests every day two weeks leading up to the exam
Reading: free ball and no study

The problem is bio Anki takes up so much time every day. Also when I would do the bio bites and the question banks for each section I never actually went and re did the ones I got wrong. I know I am capable of getting a 440, I just really need some study tips and maybe an accountability partner as well. The 420 was my first attempt and the 430 was my 2nd attempt

Edit: I used bootcamp
Both times, should I switch to
Booster?

Edit: wait guys my program requires 440 that’s why I’m retaking

Is dental school worth it if you go to an instate school?

I am a NC resident right now, and unc in state is around 50k while ecu I think is around 40k. I have the option to become in state in Alabama where in state for UAB is around 34k. Is dental school worth it to live a comfortable life, making 150k starting?

Also I would have around maybe 50k debt if I went to unc but only like 20-30k if I went to UAB or ecu.

I’m not factoring in cost of living because you have to pay to life anywhere lol
