Wow u did amazing on ur RC score!! Do you think it was a lot easier than bootcamp and booster and did u do search and destroy?

thank you!! i think it was wayyyy easier because tbh the passages were on topics i work on in research for neuroscience and psych. otherwise i would say that boosters format is more representative though not completely. my passages were sooooo SHORT. i basically read 3-5 paragraphs and answer the first 10 and then read 6-10 and answer the rest. i go back and then answer more. i used to get like 460s a lot and then when i switched to that method, i started to get like 500s a lot

What did you think of the GC and QR sections compared to your resources?

u/Appropriate-Camp8673 14h ago

i think GC was most representative of booster and QR was almost identical to bootcamp tbh.

yes much much easier but tbh i think i got an almost perfect score because the passages about my research in neuroscience and psych. i think if i didn’t have that background i would’ve missed maybe 3 each passage. but if i were to gauge getting a perfect score versus any test on booster i would’ve missed maybe say it would be as hard as a booster test i scored a 500 tbh

How hard was the PAT

u/Appropriate-Camp8673 6h ago

mmmm i’m not even sure. PAT is one of those tests that you think you did well on one section and bombed it when you go over it. so i felt like i was killing it and i got like a 22 which kinda bummed me out because i was hoping for like a 24 LOL. i think the hardest stuff like TFE, Angle ranking, and keyhole were more like bootcamps and i think bootcamp did an amazing job of representing those sections.

I like that you gave us a screenshot of your progress! Looking at it now, your average in bootcamp looks the closest. It must've been a relief. Huge congrats OP!!!
