Hi guys! Hope everyone's studying is going absolutely great! I have a q. and was looking for some advice.

My test is in another 12 days (yikes!). In this past week or two, I've taken 5 practice tests. I took one yesterday and got a lower score than my previous tests. I think I might have been a little bit tired (I felt like closing the test window and taking a nap during reading comp 😳).... I was planning on taking my final practice test today, but was wondering if I should take a few days to finish reviewing my old tests (semi-resting🙂) and then take the last practice exam I have left about a week before the real thing? Or should I just take it today to make up for yesterday's performance?

Thanks a lot for your advice guys!!!! Happy studying and best wishes to you all!!!👍

I would say re-read your notes. If you feel lacking in any area on your previous exams, definitely review those topics. Taking the practice exams (for me anyhow) helped more with timing than with content. However, you would be shortchanging yourself if you're taking these practice exams without the full load of knowledge that you could be utilizing in practice.
