Practice Tests VS Real Test

Post by coletrane » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:04 am

I've been hearing from my friends who took the PGRE last fall said that the practice problems no longer reflect the real test. I want to get other folk's opinion on this...

The '86, '92, and '96 do not reflect the real exam. That much is correct. However, the '01 and the new '08 do reflect the real thing. You should use the first three for practice and take the last two under actual test conditions. Hope this helps.

Thanks, ol! That was exactly what I was looking for.
