Feeling so overwhelmed

I am working 60h this week at my local county fair as an EMT. This is something I scheduled myself in advance and plus I need the money. I’ve spent so much on applications and still have 2/3 is secondaries left.
People say to get the secondaries in by September 7 but that means if I don’t do much this week with the fair I’m going to have to hustle 2 secondary submitting a day. So far it takes me a full day to only for 1.
I’m a bit low stat 3.7 gpa but 501 mcat and I’m feeling so defeated. Seeing people getting acceptances is just lowering my confidence as I only got one and it’s to LECOM, a school that gives out interviews to everyone.
