Can someone tell me what the order is of the AAMC FLs from hardest to easiest? Thanks 😀

From hardest to easiest it goes 11, 10, 9

7, 8, 3 are roughly equal. I didn't take any of the others

Just my opinion though

I took 3, 10, and 11 and didn't notice a significant difference in difficulty. I scored within a 3-point range on all 3.

Each test has some sections that are harder and some that are easier. You can find the score conversion charts for each of the AAMC on some old SDN threads. Generally, the more lenient the score conversion chart is for a section, the easier the section is.

For example the scoring scales tell me that:
Test 3 has a pretty straightforward PS and BS, and an average VR.
Test 6 has a hard BS, an average VR and a somewhat challenging PS.

Edit: my mistake, as csx pointed out, I should have said: "the more lenient the score conversion chart for a section, the harder the section is".

If the scale is more lenient, doesn't that mean that the content was more difficult (which in turn more people got questions wrong) so it had to be 'curved?'
