So I'm FINALLY done...
Bio 19
GC 22
OC 25
PAT 22
RC 20
QR 20
TS 21
AA 21
To study, I used Kaplan, Destroyer, and TopScore. I also referred to Campbell's Bio and McMurry's Orgo a bunch of times if I was confused about something. Bio was seriously exactly what everyone else said - completely random. I was scoring in the low 20s on all my practice tests and thought I was the best prepared for that section, but that just goes to show you how weird this test can get...
My practice scores were ALL OVER THE PLACE...seriously. I got a 15 on Orgo yesterday on my last Kaplan practice test. Believe me, I know how discouraging those practice tests can be at times, but just keep a clear mind and you'll be fine.
PAT was definitely harder than anything I used. I normally scored 23-25 on the practice tests, but the angles really are 1 degree apart and the other stuff can get tricky too.
I was doing well on RC and QR too, but during the real thing, it felt like I was running out of time. The reading passages seem a bit longer and of course, QR can get really tough.
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to everyone on this forum - it really helped to have this kind of support network before the exam. For those who have yet to take it, good luck!
