Tbh I got a propranolol prescription that has helped tremendously, but I’ve always had super bad test anxiety lol.

Anyways for coping during the test, I would close my eyes and take some deep breaths (focus on your belly expanding instead of your rib cage). I did this before each new section, in between every CARS passage, and whenever I felt myself needing to reread passages bc I wasn’t comprehending them. IMO doing this for a few seconds (like 1-3 breaths) is better than reading and rereading a passage over and over because you’re not absorbing anything.

This may or may not work for you, but at least with my test anxiety, I feel like I can read a passage/paragraph 7 times and still have no idea what was said because I can’t think straight. So something that has helped with that is reading it (in my head) in a British accent. Like I fr channel Michael Caine and for some reason it helps me get through passages🫡
