Try using AAMC #10's verbal scale as a reference. Since you probably won't be taking a full verbal test every time you practice, use the percentages (i.e. 95% = 13 VR score).

----PS ----VR ---BS
15 52-52 40-40 51-52
14 50-51 39-39 50-50
13 49-49 38-38 47-49
12 46-48 37-37 46-46
11 44-45 34-36 43-45
10 41-43 31-33 39-42
9 38-40 29-30 35-38
8 33-37 27-28 32-34
7 28-32 24-26 29-31

I've got a question concerning Kaplan FL's Verbal section: Would it be a good idea, to omit the verbal section on the Kaplan FL and at the same time, pause, and do a TPR verbal practice test? I haven't practice Verbal much and I keep on hearing that Kaplan Verbal isn't good, so would it be better to switch the Verbal Section in the FL for a TPR Practice test's verbal section and grade according to the above conversion?
