try giving the practice test at the center.....that will help to overcome anxiety and acclimatize to the place
and keep doing questions.......thats the only rx for anxiety.......

Valerian root an herb which is good for Anxiety,stress and for old graduates like me and you..take it easy..
vitamine D recently they found its help for stress too...if both are not aavailable..bdrink mint and holy basil tea they are great..
if you are above 40 check your blood pressure and sugar...
be strong and go for USMLE
good luck
