Ive realized that sometimes when practice test scaled score keys are posted the sections they reference seem to have over the number of questions that I'm used to seeing on the e-mcat practice tests(I've only ever seen ~52/40/52). What are the difference between the 35$ tests you can buy on the aamc page and the "full length" tests which seem to be out of 77/60/77... Which test can I expect on test day? and where can I acquire the "full length" tests?

FL = Full Length
You will see test on test day with 52/40/52
The following are all 52/40/52
FL#3 (Free)
FL#4,5,7-11 ($35 ea) (strongly recommended for practice)
********************************************************
77/60/77 refers to "old test" before 2007 that still circulating around in paper form
People at SDN usually refer to those old test as (e.g. FL#6R or FL#7R etc)
R implies to old test. I haven't been SDN long enough to know how the letter "R" was created.

R for "revised." Which they were. (7R is different from the even older 7)
