Huge drop on PT 70+ Forum

[sd1111]

Hi all, I am going to sit in the december test. With former PTs (PT 40~50), I scored around 166 with 6~8 RC missing questions and 6~8 LR missing questions total. Wierdly, when I begun my work on PT 70+, there is a huge drop. I barely score 160! I wonder whether the style of PT 70+ was changed and how to conquer? Personally speaking,I think PT 70+ make the CORE ARGUMENT more difficult to identify and the differences between wrong answer choices and the right one more subtler. Any suggestions mean a big favor to me!

Thanks!!!

Due to utter failure in time planning I had to jump from PT30+ directly to 70+ right before the test, and my score went down a few points too. I feel that, yeah, while games definitely became easier, LR was more nuanced and began tripping me up. But I suppose the old rule of thumb still holds. You would want to analyze where and why you got wrong. In this way you could get used to their new style and tricks.

Yeah. I do think that we should carefully analyze the tricks and try to get used to it. Thanks.
