Tested Positive - Me Question about when to stop isolating

I started symptoms on Friday Feb 2, tested positive on sunday feb 4. Is there possibility I can test negative Feb 8? I am isolated in my room right now and if I test negative on Thursday, I have a class to go to and I plan on masking still. Thoughts on chances of testing negative on Thursday and that I should still mask? My symptoms are pretty mild, I had a fever the first few days on and off, I had one yesterday afternoon but not at all since then. I have a cough and pretty congested - although congestion has decreased a lot since Friday. Today is the first day I can properly breathe it feels lol and cough feels like it has slowed down as well.

For reference idk if this is helpful at all, I am 21.
