PT #23 (RC Difficulty)

I've been hitting my RC's consistently under the time limit, averaging around -2/-3. On this PT, I got -1 and finished under 30, namely because the passages seemed fairly straightforward and questions didn't appear very difficult at all. I was wondering if others who've taken this PT (with the notorious -16 scale) felt the same way? I'm hoping this is the case (that it was significantly easier) because then I wouldn't feel so bad about my LR performance (-7/-6) which seemed to be loaded with a bunch more abstract and complex formal logic than other tests.

According to the Kaplan Q ratings, the RC on this one looks pretty easy (mostly 1 and 2 star questions).
This PT had 3 really hard LG's, and fairly hard LR sections (21/50 questions were 3 and 4 stars, tons of 4 stars).

Grrr I took this last night and hti a lousy 153, but I got -14 on games
. I thought the RC was super easy...and I got -9 on it
. -14 combined on LR which I found to have a tonnnnn of formal logic stimuluses? (oops just noticed that you accounted for this; agreed!)
Even though the basic linear game wasn't difficult, it was time consuming and I misunderstood the G _ H rule so I had to go back and missed two questions from there...LG is usually my best section so hopefully this is just anomalous. I would have crushed the last game if I had time to get to it.
