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

eyi... icecold... look at your id man... don't melt. I was same... and still... but reduce anxiety by not thinking about the exam!!! Exam will be there, in exam's place. We are trying and doing our best. So, God is watching us... just think about Him, every time you study... pray to him. If you feel too stressed, talk to your Mom... or think about her how she kept you in your lap... you will see all of your stress will be gone.

Good luck to you Brother Smile

Relax, do other things that you would enjoy doing rather than anxiously thinking of the exams. It will help keep your body relax. Or exert your anxiety on activities like singing or anything that might help keep your mind off the exam for a while. Then return back to studying once you've toned down. You can read some good resources at http://www.timemanagement.com/?tr1 which i think might help you in many ways. I hope my simple tip helps. Goodluck, you'll do great on the exam! Just keep your cool...

Sorry sis Smile Oh don't worry about that uw thing... you can't imagine how terrible I do... I did that several times and still .... c'mon.... it will be Okey soon... We are human being, forgetfulness is our nature. So...don't worry just keep studying plus prayer side by side. I used to very pious just before exam...Smile Allah knows that... but I think still HE likes me, which is true for everyone. When you are stressed too much do that one, which make you completely stress-less.
Make a routine acc to your your time management. Don't make any dreamy one so you will be more stressed.
Good luck to you.
