Hi,
So far I've taken 4 of the AAMC practice tests.

AAMC 3 13PS/11VR/13BS 37
AAMC 4 12PS/12VR/13BS 37
AAMC 8 11PS/15VR/13BS 39
AAMC 11 12PS/10VR/13BS 35

I'm not complaining about any of the scores as I would be delighted to have any of these on a real MCAT. In particular I'm concerned about my VR score dropping by 33% between two tests. I felt like VR on AAMC 8 was kind of easy and have seen threads to that effect at this site.
Also, with regards to PS, on AAMC 11 I had the equivalent of a 15 in chemistry and a 9 in physics, averaging out of course to a 12. Has anyone else had this experience or know how it might work on the real test?

thanks!

Maybe AAMC 11 just tested more heavily on topics that you are weaker in. Just take it as incentive to analyze the Qs more, but don't let it hurt your confidence going into the exam. When you get past 10/11 in each section, the differences in score are due to far less mistakes than under 10.
 
i think you're doing great, don't stress out about it too much.

Obviously AAMC11 is harder than the others you took but still those are great scores
