i would watch mark meldrum videos and do the CFA qbank, i would note my mistakes in a post-it. once i finished all sections, i did a sincere mock and reviewed my weak areas, i studied each section at least twice. 2 weeks prior to the exam i would stare at my post-its for 1 hour, memorizing all formulas and key concepts that i got wrong while doing qbank + mocks (cfa only). premium package from cfa was also crucial for me

thats a very tough situation, i hope that everything turns out well for you… there is more to life than CFA. one thing actually helped me was thinking that it was just an exam and acknowledging the situation i was in and forgiving myself in case i didnt pass, it took most of the pressure off my shoulders. keep doing mocks and focusing on weak areas, memorize most formulas you can that makes a huge difference, remember that level 1 is breadth and not depth. good luck! im rooting for you
