What average do you guys suggest would be a good comfort level going in next week? This is just to merely pass level one, not to do well, or be in upper percentiles.

I am averaging high 70's to low 80's on the schweser mocks - non ivey and I am employed full time...

I think a consistent mid 70 is a confident mark.

and your not averaging in the 80s..... more to my point.

That's right, but I doubt you can eliminate your mistakes entirely. I have done about 3000 questions and now I always make ~7-10% of silly mistakes and face ~3-5% questions which I don't understand and/or I completely don't know the answer. However, practicing is very good way to reach ~85%, but there always be ~10% silly mistakes, which you think you shouldn't have done but you always do them.

Glad to know that people are on the same boat as me. Although I couldn't practice 3000 odd questions but I get annoyed when I face a question which looks unfamiliar to me or if I forget the formula or concept. Although I try to follow the some logic to crack the problem, but chances are I will most likely get the question wrong. But I still think if you get tricked in 5% questions, you might also get 5% questions right if you were making wild guesses in questions which you weren't familiar with so on an average score remains intact with your preparation. If your preparation is for 85%, you will get 85%.

Yeah... I just can't seem to avoid falling for the 'least likely/most likely'... At least 25% of my errors in any mock are those.. and its so so so frustrating... and I vow to be careful next time but come next time and ....
