Hi, this may be a stupid question but I just wanted clarification before I purchased the online CBTs. I have AAMC 3R-10R and Princeton Review solutions in PDF format. Are these completely different tests than the AAMC CBTs that can be purchased online? Thank you.

The AAMC tests you have are the same in content, but not application. I suggest you pay for the real tests to take them online. You must get actual CBT practice and not just practice from pdfs.

They are the same, I have both. The cbt's are only shorter version. I wouldn't suggest wasting money on buying the cbt's because it's the same exact questions, only some of them have been removed. You are getting more practice and increasing your stamina by doing the older R versions. User SN2ed is wrong, they are the same in content and application...just that R is looooonger.
PS: I am missing the key to 10R and if you could send it my way, I'd really appreciate it! I recently took that as a practice and want solutions! my test is on saturday :x

I would second the statement above, in all areas but timing. I think it's more practical to take 52ish questions in the same timeframe (70/60/70mins), then do the rest for practice.
But I would agree with SN2ed for the CBT format. But just do the last 3 CBT exams if you have the rest in the R, unless you have the monetary resources to take all the CBT's, then I would do it that way.
If you look at those test in terms of content and break out the extra 25 questions per section per exam, you have yourself ~4 more practice exams if you split them up. Now that's were the benefit comes in.

To save a little money I would probably use the pdfs you have for 3-6 then buy 7-10. Timing isn't really an issue for me, I usually finish with a lot of time left in each section. I do think it is important, though, to do some on a computer.
