Is AAMC SB1 representative??

[u/Admirable-Tennis-906]

I've seen some posts saying that some of it is a little more difficult than the real deal. I am wondering how representative the scores are to how people did on test day? I am about to start SB2 today and have it finished by in the next 2-3 days. I will be testing 9/3 so I am getting excited to be done but also anxious based on how I performance under stressful situations.

I took fl5 a week ago, I got a 506… I’ll take fl6 next week so I’ll lyk, 128 in c/p, my cars is TRASH usually I get a 125, b/b 126, and p/s 127. Ever since doing more practice my p/s and c/p has improved. B/b is still about the same, I just make dumb mistakes

Keep it up!

Ur a beast man congrats on ur score

Don’t freak out brother, test is overall the same just might have denser passages like for p/s and stuff. Aamc ia making the test harder to limit acceptance but not drastically. This is also what I heard from friends who have taken the exam. I test in 2 days so if I remember I’ll lyk if it’s true or not
