Anyone else get questions exactly like AAMC practice tests?

I think I may have misread several questions because they were exactly the same as ones in the practice tests. Is this possible? Anyone else notice this?

I remember one specifically about a calcium hydroxide precipitate and the effect on the Ksp following addition of HCl.

I’m positive I saw this in one of the practice tests I took a few days ago (maybe AAMC 5 or 6).

I’m afraid I just saw what I wanted to see.

Same... I don't think we are allowed to talk about the exam questions outside of the exam room but who we kiddin' here!! haha... So what did you put down for the answer?

I reasoned that Ca(OH)2 -> Ca2+ + 2OH- so under low pH environment, H+ ion "takes up(away)" OH- ion making water. So by LaChat's Principle the equilibrium shifts to right. So more Ca(OH)2 can dissolve.

Can other people verify my reasoning? Thanks guys and no worries now. Worries won't help. Keep your fingers crossed and prey, and prey, and prey... hehe

That answer is right....but yeah some passages felt entirely the same as some practice exams...one on blood type, one on FH release...

I had a question on hydrogen bonding that was extremely similar to one on AAMC5 or AAMC 9 (can't remember which for sure). I think one of the molecules was different, but I'm pretty sure the other one was the same.

And there was a passage in BS that was eerily familiar but none of the questions were.
