Don't worry, sometimes that just happens... maybe you werent feeling it or were tired... remember verbal is a mental confidence game, put your gameface on and rock it!

SERIOUSLY MAN. I hate verbal! But it really is a confidence thing. Just freakin read it intensely man. Don't let it butt ram you again. I got butt rammed by verbal a month ago and got a 4 on AAMC CBT-4. I felt sad. Bleh. I'm climbing back up though. Hit double digits a few times since then.

I've done it before as well so don't feel too bad. Just keep practicing and eventually you will get them all right on a passage and life will be good .

Does anyone else feel like they will do a lot better on verbal on test day just because of the added pressure?? I'm hoping this will happen because when I take verbal tests now, I focus in, but I just don't feel the pressure to do really well on the passages...any1 that has taken the mcat have this experience?

It was the opposite for me.

I panicked, and it was game over =(
