How many cars passages do people recommend to do before test day? I am at around 200 passages.

I scored 129 on aamc fl 2 and my goal score is 130.

That was about how many I did and I ended up with a 129 in CARS. Just keep doing a few passages a day until your test day and you should be fine.

Yeah if you're already at about 200 I would just say to do 3-4 passages a day until your test date to really stay on top of your game.

I think you've definitely done an adequate amount and your practice scores reflect that. As others have said, do a few per day to ensure that you stay sharp and don't become rusty with the nuances of analyzing a passage. You're right on track and keep up the great work!

What would you guys say is the most representative non aamc material?

Do passages from non AAMC sources, but skip the questions. I couldn’t find any sources that replicated the style of the AAMC enough for it to be useful. It will screw you up more than it will help.

4 passages every other day for 5 months? About 300. 130 on MCAT.

I’m doing that but still struggling. They’re so hard :-//

Do the passages in the Princeton Review seem shorter and easier than the real thing?
