Force yourself to finish the passage pair on time. Don't let your performance on a previous passage affect your performance on the next one. Are you self studying? Kaplan's timing strategy is basically to give yourself 1m per discrete question and do all those first then give yourself like, 6.5m per passage (reading + questions) but time passages as a pair then give yourself like, 1-1.5m at the end to fill in answers for the questions you didn't answer.Īlways select an answer.
#Kaplan mcat practice test difficulty full
No reason to do 13 full lengths! Do about half that and you'll be just fine. I have heard that the kaplan exams are similar to the real exam in terms of difficulty but not similar in terms of the inflated curve.Īlso are kaplan's verbal tests easier/harder/or about the same in terms of difficulty on the real mcat verbal? This will help me see what resources to use. How similar are the AAMC tests to the real thing? I hear a lot of people on SDN saying that the AAMC exams are much easier than the real MCAT. According to my schedule I should be able to squeeze in another 13 practice exams before test day so that should help with the timing.
I really have to work on my timing, so I will be sure to do tons of practice tests.
I have roughly 5 weeks until exam day (August 18th). My diagnostic score was a 26, 9 PS/9 V/8 BS. The BS section I ended up with a 11 and I missed 11 questions total (that passage that I skipped resulted in me getting 6 questions wrong). (ended up getting like 15 wrong, but a lot of them were from the 2 passages that I guessed randomly on and I didn't have time to answer). I ended up getting a 9 on verbal (the passage that I ended up guessing randomly on this section resulted in me getting 5 wrong questions, I missed another 6 questions from the other 6 passages). I had to guess randomly on 2 physical science passages because I ran out of time and I had to guess randomly on 1 BS passage because I ran out of time. I had to guess randomly on 1 verbal passage because I ran out of time. I took my first real practice mcat exam today and didn't do that well (scored a 31). The BS section curve also seems a little inflated. The verbal section curves seems to be about right. How well do the kaplan practice exams correspond to the real thing? Their curves seem really inflated especially on the PS section.
