My situation is that I'm averaging 36's on my Kaplan FLs (high of 37), but 29-30 on the AAMC tests. My test date isn't until mid April, so I have a few solid months to improve.
AAMC Averages(from 3 tests):
P: 9.6 (high 10)
V: 9.3 (high 10)
B: 10.3 (high 11)
Kaplan Averages(from 3 tests):
P: 11.7 (high 13)
V: 13 (high 14)
B: 11 (high 11)
Obviously part of this is due to my VR score going way down on the AAMC tests. If I was closer to my Kaplan average in VR I wouldn't care so much. Another thing I've noticed is that when doing Kaplan tests I struggle to finish some sections, but on the AAMC's, I finish with 10-15 minutes to spare for some sections.
Any suggestions? I'm thinking of trying to get some Gold Standard practice tests to get more practice with CBTs, as all the Kaplan material I have is in the form of PDF files, and I don't want to waste my AAMC tests with 2 months before my exam date.
My goal is a 12-12-12 with a potentially higher number for VR. When taking Kaplan tests, this feels like a strong possibility, but the AAMC numbers have me a little stressed. How do I get my AAMC numbers up closer to my Kaplan scores (especially VR)?
