Guest josh Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I don't know about you guys, but I'm finding 7 and 8R to be a lot tougher than the rest and it's getting me worried. 8R is my last exam that I have and it's not a reassuring way to end.. For those who've taken the MCAT and tried 7/8, how do you find them in relation to the real thing? Or is it more like the other ones? Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest leviathan Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I bought 4R-6R but can't afford 7R or 8R...can you tell me what you found more difficult about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest skiboot Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I found PT8 difficult as well (or at least the PS - I didn't actually do the BS yet) I'm not sure about the real one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Doc2B Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I also found 8R quite difficult. 7R seemed a bit easier, but be careful of the scoring system....a couple of the answers are wrong (they used the 7 answers as the answers for the 7R test). If you go through the answers you'll see which ones are erroneous. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest frenchfrog Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 7 and 7R are two different practice exams??? I bought 7 and 8 but I've never heard of 7R or 8R. Anyway, I thought 7 was pretty difficult. Well, I got a low mark anyway. THough, this could be because there are errors in the answers (apparently?). I thought 8 was way better. Physics was pretty easy and Bio was decent. Verbal was a little tricky... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jixe Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 If you bought "7" from AAMC recently, it will be 7R. The R simply means Revised. 7 should be slightly different, since it is older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Doc2B Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 If you go through the answers for 7 (particularly the biological sciences section) you will notice that some of the explanations do not corespond with the 'correct' answers on the main answer grid. When I investigated this further, I found information that indicated that there were a few known errors, based on this 7/7R issue. I was unaware that there was two different versions or whatever, but some discrepencies do exist. My best suggestion would be to go through the answer explanations: it might make more sense then.
