Acceptable relative error in bond length calculations

(1/1)

dolphinsea14:
What relative error is acceptable for bond length calculations using semi-empirical methods in Hyperchem?
I did calculations for a compound and compared the results from the calculations with the experimental results and got about 7% relative error? Is that much, are results accurate enough? Bond lengths are in Angstrems (e.g. 1.436)
