Are Barron's Literature practice tests realistic?

<p>I got a 660 on my Literature test in June after reading through Barron's Book for a bit. Now I'm taking practice tests, and I keep getting 300-400 on the tests. I thought I had improved my analyzing skills, but apparently not. How accurate are the Barron tests?</p>

<p>Barron’s is considerably harder than the real thing. I did Barron’s practice tests for about a week before the test, scoring in the 660-700 range, then received a 740.</p>

<p>Going from a 660 on the real thing to a 300-400 though sounds weird to me, though, even if Barron’s is more difficult it shouldn’t cause hundreds of points worth of difference…</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure I just bombed the actual test…so…</p>
