TPR diag's scores are posted on the website. I took diag 481. The scores are pretty jacked up-- V-6, P-4, B-4. What gives? I got V-9, P-6, B-7 on the real thing 2 years ago.

DO NOT TAKE THE DIAG SCORE SERIOUSLY! I taught for Hyperlearning (now Princeton Review) for a few years, and the design of the scale of daigs was intentionally low. It was done that way for two reasons.

Thanks for that info!! Yeah, those tactics are a bit flaky. But I do like the classes, the instructors are very good. The guarantee's not too shabby, neither. Hope I won't be retaking it, though!

I got to use my guarantee this past summer without having to jump through any hoops or date any instructors! And I took an additional 4 prax diags that were reserved for "refreshers" - all new material.
My assessment of TPR - instructors are really "experts", however they won't be taking the test for you. What makes or breaks your scores is how dedicated you are to learning INDEPENDENTLY what you're deficient in and taking every practice test you can get your hands on once you're up to speed. Any free Saturday/Sunday morning about 3 months out should be devoted to practice tests.
