My exam is on September 14th... I am currently averaging...(qvault)

GC- 20+
OC- 20+
PAT- 18-19
RC- 20+
QR 17-18

I will be happy with the above scores...however I am averaging 18-19 on Bio and I am not improving as I take more tests and it's getting really frustrating. What do you guys think? Read more Feralis and other books or keep practicing and learning from questions? I can't study any more bio grrrrr

Qvault and some bootcamps. Go get em.

Also I think I remember you having trouble with Math Destroyer. I'm pretty much in the same position as you when you were starting with math 🙁. When are you taking it?

what do you mean qvault and some bootcamps ? I have both programs full. the above averages are for qvault..so I am not sure what you mean exactly.

Also, I mentioned above that my test is on the 14th of September so VERY SOON :scared:

I did math destroyer once without timing to get the idea and oh boy how many tears i cried over it. i thought about doing it a second time..but i just can't i hate that book and it takes me too long! So i am currently doing qvault QR. The question types are similar but easier...

I linked you several breakdowns that have numerous Bio qvualt scores. You can compare their avg vault scores to their real bio score and make your own assessment from there. From what I've seen, people usually score a 1 or two higher on the real exam.

I don't hear the same for QR on qvault though. If you're this close and already been through destroyer, go through it and work on it. You've come too far to drop the ball now on something like QR.

I enjoyed Feralis notes. I haven't started qvault for bio yet but I was able to get 74-78% right on the bio in destroyer. I used Feralis to get those last bits of information that wasn't in Barron's AP biology. After I was done, I made about 200 flash cards just from Feralis.

yeah i just looked at them looks like a few people were scoring the same as me in qvault but ended up scoring way better on the real thing oh god hope it's me.

i just cant sit and read bio again and again and again. it got to a point now where i just want to take the test and wish it was scheduled earlier...when is yours?

p.s so you suggest doing math destroyer again?

I'm sure you can find a few more qvault breakdowns to get more reassurance. I bookmarked a few when I started studying to give me a baseline.

Regarding my MD suggestion, I'm not sure. I just got the impression that people usually score a point lower or around the same as their qvualt score. I suggest MD because you already familiar with it. You've been through it when others are struggling to.

I hope to take mine around the time of yours but I might just push it back a week or two because of the math. As long as its a +17, I really don't care.

You're almost there, just hang on a bit longer and give it everything you got.
