When Should I Take my Last Practice Exam?

I apologize if this question has been covered before, but I searched through the forums and could not come up with a good answer.

I am scheduled to take the real GMAT in 14 days, and I was curious as to when I should take my last full practice test (through the GMATPrep Software). I have taken 5 MGMAT tests throughout my prep course and have been able to dedicate approximately 4 hours of studying each day. Ideally I would like to be able to take the two GMATPrep exams, but I do not want to burn myself out before the real exam.

I have heard conflicting answers (ie: Take your last exam a couple days before the real exam / take your last exam exactly a week before). I could really use any advice on when I should take my last practice exam in order to maximize my score on the real test day. As well, any additional advice on how to maximize my studying now that I am in the home stretch would be really appreciated!

Thank you
