FEELS SO GOOD TO BE DONE!
Thoughts:
Bio: Some bio questions were completely out of the blue. I dont remember seeing it in any prep book. You just have to eliminate choices and make an educated guess.
GChem: very straightforward, nothing too tricky here.
OChem: basic reactions, just know the reaction conditions that is best suited for a particular reaction.
PAT: much easier than achiever. I was getting 18's on achiever and i did much better. The angles were near impossible, just have to go with your first hunch.
RC: Slightly harder than achiever. THe actual RC had less keywords that you can pick up on, so you have to scan very carefully. Also, it required a little more analysis, not word for word answers like in topscore/achiever.
QR: My best subject on the practice tests, dont know what happened. I think I just got burnt out from the rest of the test... Ended it 15 minutes early. So my advice, practice on your stamina and DONT end sections before time is up.
One question though: For the RC, somehow a 21 equated to 76.5 percentile. How did that work out?
Good luck to everyone out there.
