About how many paragraphs should I be expecting for each article? I've been doing CD-Reading and some have articles that are only about 12-15 paragraphs each (which are doable/reasonable), but the last one I just took had 17-26 for each... What's the average number of paragraphs per article? (sorry if this has been asked before, somehow I didn't have any luck finding similar threads).

expect somewhere in between, if I remember correctly, mine had anywhere from 14-19 paragraphs though some "paragraphs" were really just one or two sentences.

Mine seemed shorter than CDP, but they were more scientific. If you can do CDP you should be good for the real thing. The highest I got on CDP was 23 on the real thing I got a 24. I think mine had 15-20 paragraphs, but, yeah, some paragraphs were only 2 sentences. In general, all the paragraphs seemed shorter than CDP paragraphs.
