I need some opinions, I am taking the GMAT on Saturday would you recommend taking a practice exam one day before the exam. I have taken quite a few exams with erratic scores ranging between 580-640. In the past week I have reviewed my error log but I am not sure if I should take an exam or not. I dont want to be super de-moralized if I get a **** score but at the same time I want to know what to expect.

DO NOT TAKE any test the day before the exam. You will not only feel mentally exhausted on the day of the test but you will also begin to doubt your ability.

the best you can do now/tomorrow is to relax, go over error logs (you probably have a bit since your score range is 600ish) and review the basics. If you know your morale will be affected by a bad test score then dont do it!
