What do I do?!

I just took COMSAE 110 today and got a 462. On April 20th last month I got a 476 on my school-administered COMSAE, and I took COMSAE 107 a few days before the school one and got a 359. Is 462 a very low score for where I should be? My test is in 13 days and I’m panicking so much. I keep seeing other people getting above 500 but my score literally dropped 10 points. What do I do?! I can’t even move my test back.

So far I have completed 80% of Truelearn with a 61.3% average but I don’t even know if completing that is going to improve my score much. I plan to take form 111 in a few days to a week. Is getting 462 a very bad sign this close to the exam? I know I sound so paranoid right now but I’m just looking for encouragement or advice on what to do at this point.

Feel so anxious about level 1

I know I made a post yesterday too but I just haven’t been able to stop panicking all day. My heart won’t stop racing at the thought that I have level 1 on June 3rd. I can’t even push it back farther because of rotations. I’m genuinely terrified of failing and haven’t been able to sleep. I don’t want my two years of medical school to go to waste. I feel so pathetic. Why didn’t I do more questions? Why didn’t I do dedicated content review?? I feel so overwhelmed because I didn’t do content review for anything and it’s too late now and I don’t know whether I should try to cram content review or read all of first aid as fast as possible or just do questions. Is questions even enough without content review?? What’s going to happen to me if I fail! I’m actually so worried that I’ll just blank out on the exam from the stress. I don’t want to disappoint everyone. I don’t want to come out of this process without becoming a doctor.

What do I do? Genuinely panicking

I’m scheduled to take Level 1 literally on June 3rd and I feel like I couldn’t be farther from prepared and I have less than 3 weeks and I can’t even move it back any more other than June 9th because there’s nothing else available and I need to move for rotations as well.

I don’t think I’m ready but I don’t know what to focus on anymore. I keep jumping between sketchy micro, pathoma, the Mehlman PDFs, and Anki for uworld incorrects (which takes forever) for content review but I don’t know what to focus on most. Also trying to juggle questions but between all this, I’m only doing around 40-50 board questions a day which I know is so little for what I should be doing. I know I sound so stupid and unprepared and I know it’s on me and by now I should’ve been feeling confident with how little time I have left but I genuinely don’t. I still haven’t done dedicated content review for systems like cardio, neuro, GI, OMM, pulm, or heme/onc BUT ITS BECAUSE I THOUGHT QUESTIONS WOULD BE ENOUGH BUT NOW IM SECOND GUESSING THAT.

Does anyone have any advice for what I should do? What is the best way to do content review for the systems with such few days left before level 1? I’m genuinely terrified of failing and I know I should’ve been more organized but I’ve never been someone who followed a daily schedule or routine and I did fine throughout preclinicals but now I’m wishing I had started dedicated with a daily schedule.

Here’s some info for where I’m at:

4/15 COMSAE 107: 359

4/20 School-Administered COMSAE: 476

5/10 NBME 31: 61% (84% chance of passing)

72% of TrueLearn/Comquest completed with a 60.5% average and 35% of UWorld completed with a 46% average.

Am I absolutely cooked?? What can I do to maximize my chances of passing. I’m so anxious and feel like I’m just grasping at straws at this point.
