GC: 17, 19
OC: 17, 19
PAT: 20, 21
RC: 17, 20
QR: 16, 18
TS: 17, 18
AA: 17, 19

Achiever 1, 2, 3:

PAT: 17, 17, 18
RC: 14, 15, 12
QR: 14, 16, 18
TS: 18, 16, 16
AA: 16, 16, 15

CDP: 18, 18, 18, 20, 21, 20, 20, 22, 22

CDR: 15, 15, 17, 18, 18, 16, 16, 16, 19

CDM: 16, 15, 21, 18, 19, 18

Overall, I feel pretty confident, but I don't know if I'm being too confident. Regardless, I'm gonna go in there ready to kill the test, but at the same time I dont want to be disappointed. The only sections I'm worried about are Bio (only took gBio) and RC.


What do you guys think...am I ready to kill this test?

How did you improve your reading score? I keep making around a 17 on CDR, but am doing well on everything else. It is really demotivating and is making me feel like I am not prepared for my test next week.

From what people say, the test is easier, so I think you should be fine.

That is so calming to hear!

I think I improved my reading score just by practicing with CDR and TS and Achiever. Mapping worked well for me on the last CDR, but I did it only 2 out of the 3 passages. If I thought the passage was too dense to map, I just would read it through. I thought it would just take too much time to map it out. I guess what helped me is to not think too much about strategy, just answer the questions.

Hope this helps!

I think u r ready to kill it. Go over all explanations on things u missed. and things like NMR/IR/ lab techniques/ taxonomy etc. U will do great. Do a PAT everyday if possible!

in reading i got 18's on every single practice test and ending up getting an 18 on the real thing. focus on the sciences, they are the most important

Take the test! Go in there with attitude and own it.

Focus on reading, everything else is good for 20+
