I understand what position you are in all to well having gone through it quite a few years ago. All I'd say is, it's definitely possible for you to make it to a college of your choice.
With that said, the only way to do it is hard work. You may even have your boards and will have to compartmentalize. It's up to you to do justice to this balancing act.
There's a quote that I came across recently (if someone knows the source please do share) that I wish I'd heard during my prep - "The best time to begin was yesterday and the second-best time is today."
These seven months are yours. Manifest your goal and commit to the prep.
Go win this Queen/King!

Anxiety is natural because this is a task which can be daunting. But you have enough time to make this a reality. Just don't let the anxiety rule you. Start making positive affirmations.
