I just pray that some of my guesses were right and LR saved me. Plus I also didn't think RC was that difficult. Then again I go anywhere from -1 to -5 on RC and always feel like I crushed it :/ I just need a sweet curve

The comparative, I think, was supposed to be the "plottwist" for the test. Never seen an 8q comparative before. Did that first and it took me like 11 mins.

Glad I wasn't the only one, questions seemed pretty straightforward/easy to eliminate

Thanks.
Somehow it seems a lot of us misread a rule - for me as I said before I missed the "non" in Nonconsecutive lol, I assumed I would be the only one to make such a silly mistake but it seems a lot of us may have forgotten our reading goggles yesterday
Sigh... PT average was 172, 3rd take sat out a year for this moment. Made the same mistake and totally botched that game. Not a good feeling smh

Made the same mistake as well. Although I'm not cancelling I know that mistake is going to take a major toll. Ugh feel so bad
I made the same. freaking. mistake.

Now, I'm realizing that I'll definitely have to re-take in December. The October test was my first one. I was assuming that it was typically frowned upon to have re-takes. Is it? If so, how does it work against us during the application process?

Was this the one taking place over a week?

That was the best possible way for me to start the test--RC is my favorite section, and I wrote a paper on Schoenberg last year. I got really excited and was just hoping it wasn't experimental!

Has anyone ever taken this, felt really good, and actually done well?

My opinion. That test was much easier than June. I wouldn't expect anything more than -11. Game 3 on LG tripped me up though. Now proceeding to black out

This test feels similar to 74. 75 was easier but rough curve.

May just be personal strengths but it felt exactly like 74 to me. I was struggling throughout the exam and just squeezed out a 170. 175 went super smoothly for me but still hit my PT average so apparently how I feel doesn't quite mean much lol

Yep. Hakeem was there.

And there was another condition attached to these people as well?

How did you guys manage to remember so much detail?!

I forgot what I had in my test as soon as my MC scantron was taken away..
