I'm averaging 20-25 out of 40. Pretty pathetic if I need 32+ to right to get a 10? Should I just quit using this book? A lot of the questions you have to refer back to the passage to find answers. My score seems to be getting worse each time. I have princeton and ek but I was saving those for later and I can't really compare the difficulty. Any thoughts?

Interesting. On the CBTs its a really generous scale where a 26-27 is a '10' and a 32+ is a 13+ usually...

Move on to EK and see how that goes for you.

Don't worry-I quit using the book after the 6th test. Use TPR and EK-they're better.

Yeh I tried BR this past month and it SUCKS! I bought EK verbal, but I am saving it right now since I am not taking the MCAT until late April. Use TPR and EK verbal. The question stems for BR seem whack a lot of the times. Waste of money, but their physical sciences are GREAT!

It's nice to hear I'm not the only one who thinks this haha and I agree the physical sciences and orgo books are starting to grow on me
