Is the rdg. comprehension on the PCAT similar to the Kaplan study guide or the Barron's/Peterson's study guide? I'm missing 2-3 questions on the Barron's/Peterson's rdg. comprehension section but when I take the rdg. comp. from Kaplan's, I miss a lot!
 
I found that the kaplan's guide did not prepare me for the reading comprehension. there were many inferring questions. most questions were hunt for detail types. if you are looking for a good guide for this look elsewhere. the passages were not hard; there were just too many of them.
 
yea, i also used the barron's and peterson's...and the questions weren't difficult for the reading comprehension. But I haven't used the kaplan version yet. I'm sure that the real test would be similar to kaplan's version (for the reading); that's my guess.
 
i didnt like the plan that kaplan used for this section. i thought that it was a waste of time. they wanted you to write out an outline for each passage.
