NCBE Practice vs Actual MBE Score

In the middle of bar prep for next week's exam. I have been using Themis, but not very happy with my scores (on practice q's or practice exams). Some folks have recommended using at least one practice NCBE exam which I did and scored about 12% better than I have on the Themis questions. I did a quick search to see if there are any reports from past takers of NCBE practice exam scores vs actual MBE but couldn't find anything more recent than 2009.
So, if any of you bar passers are out there and did the NCBE practice tests, how did it compare with your score? I do understand that we don't know our MBE raw, but just looking for some numbers to compare with. Thanks all!

I would be interested in this information as well but somehow there is not much info out there,which is weird especially considering these came out in 2017.

According to some other threads I've seen, that exam is not particularly helpful in that it doesn't include the harder level questions that will show up on the exam, mainly just the easier to easy/medium ones.

Well shit. I got a 75 on that, but thought it was hard and you're out here telling me those were the easy questions?
