VR-TPR vs. AAMC scoring system??

[G1SG2]

Okay when I took AAMC CBT 3, I scored a 9 on the VR section, and got 26/40 right. I also got 26/40 right on TPR Diagnostic 1, and they gave me a 7 What in the world!? Is that how it works for TPR? I'm confused.

DO NOT BELIEVE TPR VERBAL SCORES!

I remember freaking out the same way you are after seeing low TPR vr scores...but that's just how it is. If you're scoring 9-11 in AAMC, you'll see 7-10 in TPR tests. It's great practice though! Just don't worry if you don't score as well as you hope on those tests.

26/40 is a 65% isn't that a little bit low for a 9. I also heard that AAMC 3 was easier comp. to other AAMC tests, shouldn't the % be higher for a 9.

What percent do you have to get for a around a 10?
