Kaplan Average 39 AAMC 37.5 Actual 36. I'd say Kaplan is good for diagnostic and building test taking skills due to the difficult passages. Their verbal tests more on recall than synthesising info/big picture stuff. The real deal PS is most like Kaplan. In AAMC you see that blanking on one subject will torpedo your score. wait till a month before your exam once you're through all the material and hit the AAMC's making sure you work on eliminating errors. I'd stay away from Kaplan stuff close to the test and hone in on AAMC.
