TPR CBT passages

Is it just me, or are TPR CBT science passages completely different from the workbook passages? I feel like the workbook passages are longer and require some critical analysis if you are going to be able to answer the questions while the CBT passages seem to be five or six sentences of information that isn't very relevant to the questions. I'm frustrated because I feel like the workbook passages prepared me for a test that is completely different from the CBTs. Maybe I'm just imagining things?

Yes PR CBT are totally different from the sci wrbk but PR sci are very accurate they are 1 point below my AAMC BS and PS average... VR is another story.

I agree - they are entirely different. I think the TPR Workbook passages are significantly better for Biology, because the CBTs rely heavily on random bio fact regurgitation.

I personally would use TPR CBTs mainly to identify content weakness - not to predict your scores. That being said, I found the verbal sections to be far more helpful than EK 101.
