Are LR sections in the later PTs harder than earlier PTs? Forum

If so, what is the difference? I've been hitting more snags early in the LR section than I did before. Can't really figure out what is the difference. More assumption questions in more recent tests?

I think they are in a certain way. With the later ones, I have to read much more carefully and slowly (make sure you soak up everything). While the earlier ones the reading is a little more like RC (just get the overall reasoning and pick up whatever details you can).

That being said, I prefer the newer ones to the old ones. Sometimes the old ones would just throw some real curve balls. But that's just me.

For me, the later PTs, especially the 60s, seem to have a more vague way of wording the actual question. I think that is what slows me down a bit.
