How similar was this section to the real thing? I know you can't tell us what problems where on there but on a scale of 1-10 how similar would you say the QUANT section is? I'm scoring pretty well on this section on the practice test. All I have done is Dr collins for this section. For the math part all I am going to do is Dr collins and review the pearson math test. Should that be good enough for the real thing?

That should be good enough. As long as you can do all the different types of problems, you should be fine. Work on your timing also. And during the test, make sure to SKIP THE HARD QUESTIONS AND THE ONES THAT TAKE TOO LONG. I skipped probably like 12 questions on my test, did the easier ones and came back to the hard ones. I guessed on like all of them and still got a 93 in QA 😀

So does this mean that the Pearson's practice tests are very similar to how we are tested on the actual PCAT? I mean in terms of how the questions are phrased? Because it doesn't seem tricky at all! I feel like if you know your concepts you are good to go. Also how similar is the verbal section? Because my practice Pearson's test verbal seemed very easy in terms of analogy vocabulary.
