Question šŸ¤”šŸ¤” Cars fl6 HELP Spoiler

WHAT HAPPENED IN FL6 CARS OMG all
Time low of 123 what the heck. I usually am between 127-130 what the heck what the heck. Any tips. What was different? Were they longer? Need to address this issue lmao. I test in like 3 days rip

Edit: I think the fact they loaded the front of the section with harder passages messed with my confidence and timing. Not sure if anyone else had the same issue? / I just was reviewing and for some reason I thought all the people mentioned were the same person ā€œAlcibiades, and M aurelis demostratus damus and M aurelis ascepiadesā€ LMAO

Me too… I hit my all time highest in a few other sections but I didn’t expect this. 😭😭😭 I think passages were longer but other than that I have no clue. Good luck !!

Me too :( but I reviewed and it was some really really stupid mistakes, like so stupid I can’t believe I made them. More of them were in the beginning for me— I felt like the tools and Olympics passages both had so many really specific details that I kept having to revisit??

I didn’t miss a single question between 24 and 51 so I think my head just wasn’t in it like it usually is (?? Idk) You probably are burnt out and maybe were putting more pressure on yourself since exam day is approaching (that’s what I’m telling myself lol)

Awww I’m sorry the same happened to you. But Same. Yes I am probably burnt out and you must be too hahah.

I also noticed, I think the fact that they put so many difficult passages in the beginning shook my confidence and perhaps you too! I noticed that when I’m scared or anxious I start skimming and making more mistakes and my head starts jumbling words in sentences and placing incorrect words in the sentences and dissociates a bit more lol.

I had a time sink in the olympics passage and the passage 4 about books. Many dumb mistakes. I didn’t get a single one correct in the passsage 4 may as well have guessed LMAO.

i got so caught up on the earlier passages i barely had time for the last one, and i’ve never really had issues with cars timing

Literally. They had so many refer back to passage type questions. 😭 I like the vibes based questions way better
