<p>I looked at one of the QAS that I have (gotten from the black market) and I noticed that the 1st long passage has an average difficulty of 2.33 and the 2nd long passage has an average difficulty of 4.5. However, I really felt that the 2nd long passage was much easier and I only got 1 mistake there, as opposed to 3 mistakes in the 1st long passage. </p>
<p>Why is that? I did not have an issue in time, but maybe the discrepancy is because of the issue in time?</p>
<p>Those levels do not indicate the difficulties of the passages but of the questions. So within the level 4 or 5 questions there can be some “dangerous” answer choices that people might easily make mistakes in their reasoning process.</p>
