I used a myriad of books. In the practice tests, the verbal was very similar. If you get, lets say 44 out of 60 right on the practice, the chance of that on the real test is very similar. On the math part, I got perfect on nearly all the practice tests, but 7 wrong on the real test. I’m not sure if it is because I was sick on the day of the test or not. The reading part of the real test is definitely harder, for me. Most of the questions are similar, but the answers are much more complicated. In the end, I had to guess usually between 2 or 3 very similar answers after eliminating the bad ones. The passages on the real test is much longer. They normall take up at least 1/4 to 1/2 the page in text size similar to the type i’m writing in. Also, the Essay part, there is only ONE page to write on. My practice books gave me two pages, on the real test, there is ONE page.
