what are you aiming for because with those scores it seems like you'll hit around 220-230.
 
well i want a 99 but....i don't know what the 3 digit score means so in my ignorant mind i just know what is good or bad in terms of the 2 score scale 🙁
 
anything over a 240 is good (a 99 is probably around 236). with those scores you're getting you probably won't score that high. I would only push back your exam if you can clearly identify areas you could work on. If not, pushing back your exam won't help.

Burnout. Why take 4 in 4 days? If you looked up every answer, then you wasted the predictive value of them. If you didn't, then you wasted money.

Assuming the OP didn't look up the answers... doing all 4 of them would maximize the prognostic value (unless they repeat questions between the exams... I've only done one myself). The average of those scores is almost certain to be within 1-2 points of the real thing.

But yeah... 4 NBME's in 4 days has got to be a drainer. Especially this late. OP, just try to relax and focus on tying up loose ends like reviewing parts of First Aid you don't feel so hot in.
