dude, everyone does that!! if we all got 80 every exam we sholdn't be doing practice exams but should be taking real exam!!! it's fine, that just means there's things u know and things u need to work on, so it will be fine.. just learn from it and dont be obsessed with the percentiles.. it's a learning tool.. use the nbme's to see ur predicted score, they are pretty good at doing that.. best of luc!

well zursha it is not a rule, these exams is more for practice to get experience about the type of qs and to learn how to apply what you read. it is good to have good score on them which give some confidence. i did not do kaplan q bank but most who do it 1st befor wu. nbme gives more near estimate to your actual score good luck

hi ra7man , im in the exactly same situation my average now is 63 and some days i can get 70 and other 53 or 58 , but what i notice is that it happend when i left to read ,and i just take exams . i did kaplan q bank before , and now i taken uw , and yes its the better option because , uw have many tricky questions , and q bank show you how to know the basic , and uw training you to think more in the question .
