NBME 7 4 days out: 128/200 = 64%

OK, so these exams are deriving me crazy, but my trajectory has been NBME 6 121/200 60.5% 342 with converted score of 203, then a week later NBME 8 121/200 60.5% 366 with converted score of 207, and now NBME 7 128/200 64% 392 with covered score of 211. Still have Free137 to do, but just always so frustrating to see such small improvements... my goal is pass (don't care about score), but I DO want to pass first go. Hopefully Free137 I'll get closer to 70%, would be the dreaaaam haha.

NBME 8 - 366 (121/200, 60.5%) - 10 days out

And the worst part is I was feeling like it was going much better than NBME 6 last week (which was also exactly 121/200 LOL, but the NMBE score was 352). Saving NBME 7 for last, and free137. I guess I'm concisely at same level though? Would just like the mental peace of mine that I'm not so borderline passing going into exam (actually score - could care less if 200 or 260, but for mental state would love a nice buffer score in practice before test)... And will continue to do CCS daily (to get to like 50 highest yield done at least).

NBME 6 - baseline assessment after some dedicated, 3 weeks out from exam

Just took NBME 6 as a baseline (after having been studying for a few weeks), and then exam in just under 3 weeks. Got 129/200, so 64.5%. Which according to the calculation I found on here (score - 500 / 100)x0.15 + 277 = 203, so technically a pass, but has anyone else been in a similar situation a few weeks out, and was able to improve? I just want to confidently feel like I will pass going into the exam (and not be freaked out about pass/fail, more so do better to do worse based on test day, but safely over that passing threshold yenno??) USMLEs just freak me out, I don't do well on them lol. Also I know the CCS is like 25% ish so also have been doing a case a day (going highest yield to lowest on CCSCases - takes an hour to fully do over/review the case and learn it).
