Overstudied or Burntout?

Im taking the test in 4 days here in Southern California. I have been studying for almost 2 months. I have put in 4-6 hours a day of studying with a few days off each week, barely. I have done 50-100 questions each day, did all the qbank and qtrainers kaplan provided and scored in a decent range. Used saunders content review for more detailed information other than kaplan's course book. Total questions done, probably about 2500+. Today at Barnes and Nobles, my second home, after 3 hours of studying, it finally hit me, I feel so BURNTOUT. I did not want to look at anymore assessments or interventions. Have I overstudied? I'll go over the endocrine section again and find myself panicking that I have forgotten what was going on.

I have 4 days left. I'm gonna take the day before the exam off, should I make it 2 days? I feel like if I dont open up a book, I may miss something. I just wanna get this exam over with and pass. Anyone go through this and what did you do?

About three or four days would be the best. You need to give your brain time to just chill out.

I don't think you overstudied but do believe you need to relax and convince yourself the preparation is done. Don't second guess if you did enough or not. Any worry is wasted energy so let it go.

Good luck.
