Is it possible to score much lower than nbme average?

[Newyawk]

Hi everyone. I took my exam monday. I took 5 nbmes and did about the same on all of them. Anyway, i had a horrible test day - my exam was shockingly difficult imo, and to make matters worse i was mentally fatigued thruout the exam because of 4 hours of sleep that night and panicking before the exam.
I was just wondering if anyone knows of anyone who scored significantly lower than their nbme average (260 to 240 or even 230, for example)

Thanks for the reply. Thats not too bad of a drop. Did he feel horrible after the exam as well?
