anybody else finding Kaplan MCAT45 tests to be difficult? Are these passages and questions really that much harder than the actual exam?

BruceWayne said:I've heard bad things about the Kaplan 45, mainly in that its NOT a good predictor of what the actual test would be like. From reading reviews of people that have used it, its supposed to give you nightmare passages, so that if the actual test hits you something of that nature, you won't freak out.
I've also read its a self esteem downer, but that really depends on the person I guess. Also, I've read Kaplan recycles some questions from the book into their full length practice exams.
I don't know if you find it difficult or not, but for me I mainly stayed away from it because I heard that its a poor indicator of the actual test, so I decided not to waste my time on it--but who knows maybe it works for people.

Not to be mean, but this is perhaps the stupidest thread I have seen on SDN, ever. If you read the preface to this text, your question would've been answered....
