TPR Verbal WB Practice Test 1 Passage II

Ok, I just took practice test 1 from TPR Verbal Workbook and got a 27/30 ---> 8 or a 9. There is one passage that still does not make any sense to me at all. It's passage 2 on volitional consciousness. WTH? Is this for real??? I missed ALL 7 questions on this passage...which is really preventing me from my goal of 10. Ahhh!! Anyone else had the same issue? What are your thoughts on this passage?

OMG yes, I got all 7 questions wrong too. That passage was so messed up. I got a 24/40 on the first test, so I'm guess that's a 7 🙁

I thought the passages were all a little ridiculous, especially the second one. If I saw that on the real deal I would have voided. Unfortunately, I got a 33/40 (I'm only doing 40 at a time) so my gut is a bit misleading.

Wow, really happy to see I'm not in this boat alone. I just took the first two passages from exam 1 and got 4/4 on the first passage and 2/7 on the second. Also, I found the last 5-10 practice passages to be much more difficult as well. Up until then I was scoring consistently in the 10 range for TPRH and could tell I was improving. I don't think I'm going to put too much stock into these most recent passages. Maybe TPR conciously made them more difficult.

So, I took the MCAT already, so here's what I learned. TPR Verbal worbook is a good indicator or how you will perform on the real deal I think (at least it was true for AAMCs). The passages were a little easier on the real deal. I am hoping for an 8 or above. If I have to retake, it's probably going to be because of verbal. Good luck!

I feel like the practice passages in TPRH verbal are easier than the practice exams, but maybe that's just me. Having said that, I think the practice passages are easier than EK101. I haven't done AAMC yet, but I feel that I could break 10 if how I've done recently means anything.
