i dont recommend taking anotehr test just before because, as someone else mentioned before, you dont really want that test to shake your confidence.

I don't recommend taking a practice test within 3 days of the real test. You'll tire yourself out (would you run a practice marathon right before the real thing? Smile). You could shake your confidence. Finally, any time you take a test, you need time to learn from it, and it takes at least 3-5 days of post-test review and studying to get everything you can out of each practice test experience.
