miss china relax...this is normal.happens with everybody.....you worked hard for the exam till now.....so just relax.....what matters is ur hard work in the last 3-4 months........nothing much is gonna change in the last 4-5 days....its easy to say but try not to think much abt scores etc and remain calm.....
my exam is 15 days from now and i m having the same problem....i revised some 500 UW qs in the last 3 days......and i got many wrong which i had done correct earlier.....so we all have common problems .....we all are human beings with the same anatomy/physiology and pathology 
All the best!

Hey miss china relax..
It's very common to feel you're feeling now. Just stay confident. It's your hard work over the last few months that counts. As you proposed, FA is a wonderful source to read in the last days. If you get some more time, try to have a quick look at the UW Qs that youve done (specially the wrong one)..
Have a wonderful sleep the night before. Stay confident. good luck. you'll do well if u've worked well..

Yeah you all need to relax...stress can even make you forget stuff that you actually know. Listen.....here is a strategy ( I should follow this myself!!!). Dont let your mind think that you are going to do bad. At this moment at least, think ONLY positive thoughts. Close your eyes and visualise yourself acing this exam , holding that 99 in your hands, feeling it, its yours and you deserve it becoz you have worked hard. Feel the positive vibes all around you. The 99 is just waiting for you to be unlocked and you have the key to open it out ! You have all the brains, all the potential, all the knowledge and the blessings to take that out of the lockup and only you can get your 99 out! So, drop this nervousness, get up and go get your 99 with confidence. So, tell yourself, I can do it and believe it...feel it and go get it. Any other negative thought showed be stopped at this moment at least (Put a stop sign to them!!!). Just relax.
May be somebody will be able to say this to me when my test day comes!!!

I would suggest you take it easy.
What you have learned so far is inside your head and it will surface on the exam. You must calm your mind. Otherwise it will all be a mess! Please relax and let it go...! Sounds like and odd advice? Yes - let it go! Relax. Sleep. Listen to baroque music... and since it is all in your head - it will come up easily and surely. Don't panic.
For now - go to bed. Sleep long (8 hours), don't think of the material if you can.
And for the review - I think it's best now to only read from FA... you got it there...
Good luck on the exam! I am awaiting your experience - I am sure you'll do great!

thanks u guys.. finally my exam is over! ahh.. wat a relief!!! cant believe it. even after coming back from the exam i almost opened a book. it was really a reliefe..
my exam wasnt that great. honestly i did the stupidest thing. i slept only 3 hours .. i know wat u r thinking " i told u so" but really i shud hav listen . i was yawning few times during the exam.
and there were many questions from UW.
and there were lot of questions from micro. and also i think there were like 15-20 physiology. i don't know if that is how the exam normally is. but yeah.. thats wat i remember.
i remember few things .. so i m going to write it here anyway. in embryology i remember the cleft palate, 5-6 qs from pharyngial arches. in neuro anatomy, MCA damage, broca lesion, ..... actually almost all the major topics from neuro. i think there were something like 15 again. i m not sure about the no, but there was quite a lot of it. cant remember seeing any blood supply question. oh.. there was one question of an angiogram of the abdominal aorta and they were asking wat was wrong wth it. i didnt know .
from immun. there was this graft versus host disease as usual, and HIV, bee sting (this time some other sting , either way ) .....
biochemistry... many from metabolism as usual again and few from nutrition.
genetic calculations. and in biostat the usage of power and all that. there were like 8-10 qs from there too. and they had given a graft and asked to explain it according to accuracy and things like that.
not many slides in pathology but again maximum no of qs.
m.. i cant remember much but i remember it wasnt that hard. there were some questions directly taken from UW. thats how i felt.
but i m not sure if i did my best. i really shud hav slept well. darn it.! now its too late anyway.
good luck u guys and thank u so much for all the words during the last few weeks. u guys really helped me and i really appreciate it.!
and if i get a good grade thats thanks to u. and well.. if i fail i m not gonna do it for another 700 years.. by that i mean i m sure i ll pass
thanks again guys; i ll write wenever i remember the questions.. keep it tight. i m sure u guys can do it. i honestly dont know how i did it. it was all a mix idea. but i was certain of something,, and that is step 1 is soooo duable.! so giv your 100%. i m sure u can get through it.
c ya

thanks a lot miss china....for reassurance that step 1 is doable. I actually freaked out really bad yesterday evening ......I really have no control over what mindset I will have on the exam day....I got so panicky and had to close the books and took the rest of the day off. The problem with this exam is the nervousness and the stress it produces!!! I mean look how tense you were before and how relaxed you are now!! Thank God you didnt lose your brains during the test worrying!!! I am just sick and tired of making this exam 'the centre of my life and the worth of my existence'!!! I think I will just put this test in perspective as being a part of my life....If I dont pass it with high marks then oh well......I will go to some river and spend the rest of my life fishing!!! I guess everyone goes through these thoughts. We have just got to shut our minds and use our energy studying as much as we can and then just go give it a shot. After that whatever happens happens!. There is a point in this worry system where we just gotto let go!! However, I dont want to lose my brains and forget everything I have learnt because of stress!!! I am hoping that when I see the questions pop up on the computer screen on the test, my mind will start working and put to use all this knowledge that I have acquired from med school !! Anyway,.....I guess I have become too paranoid studying today!!! Sorry, for this kind of nervous post. My break time is over. So got to go again! Bye Guys. I will see you later.
Oh and Thanks Hottie. Hottie BEST OF LUCK FOR YOUR EXAM. Do great okay. I am sure you will do well.
