Diagnostics harder than the real test?

<p>I'm taking a Princeton Review ACT class, and while I'm getting high 30's on the practice tests in the books, I get lower scores on my diagnostic tests. </p>

<p>Has anyone taken this class? Are the diags we take in class harder than the real ACT test?</p>

<p>I think it’s a fact that diagnostics are harder for whatever test you’re taking.</p>

<p>I didn’t take the Princeton Review ACT class, but I took the SAT one. I was getting scores in the 1800-2000 range. My final SAT score? 2280. The same was true for the self-tests I took for the ACT and SAT IIs. So, yes, diagnostics are harder.</p>

<p>Alright, that’s a good sign. I really noticed it because my scores in The Real ACT were all in the 33 range…however on my diags, different story…</p>

<p>May I ask what your scores for the ACT diagnostic and the real thing were?</p>

<p>Diagnostics are harder because it will make you feel better on the last test (which will be easier than the real one). They just want to make you feel that you have paid your money’s worth</p>
