My wife and son will be out of town. So I can take the test after getting a full night's rest, and having no distractions.
What do you guys think? A good idea, or bad?
My personal opinion is take it as soon as you can. Over thinking the test seems to be a common problem. Giving yourself 4 days to worry, and then an empty, quite house where you have time to over think may be an issue. In the end, you know what is best for you, but there should be nothing on the assessment that waiting 4 days will make you better prepared for. Be yourself, answer honestly, don't read into questions, avoid absolutes (example: I have never told a lie: T/F), and be consistent.
