Are NBMEs easier than UWorld?

My usmle was like a slightly easier version of Uworld. I was scoring in the 230’s on the NBME practice tests I took and I scored in the upper 250’s and low 260s on the UWAs. I got in the 250’s on the real thing. I don’t think NBMEs are harder than the real test, but the scoring on those tests are too harsh.
