how come my CR raw scores are so UNEVEN!?

<p>On the first section (of CR of course) i got a raw score of 14,but on the 2nd and 3rd one i got 21 and 17,how could that happen?is it because my brain is ''warmed up'' yet at the begining.If so,how can i fix this problem?it annoys me so much!</p>

<p>Unless this is a pattern you’ve noticed over taking several tests, I wouldn’t get worked up about it. It’s probably just that you didn’t know some vocabulary or ran into a reading passage that was difficult for you on that first section.</p>

<p>^this is my second time to see this kind of pattern</p>

<p>A bad passage perhaps? I’ve had that happen with me from time to time in my practice when I get a passage that I really didn’t like/couldn’t relate to.</p>

<p>Here is the trend with me:</p>

<p>Sometimes I take a practice test (released one) and I would get 17/19 raw score on the sentence completion. Next day I would take a blue book one and get like 10-12/19. I hate the fluctuation of questions.</p>

<p>For passages, sometimes I would miss 1-3 on like 18 questions and other times -10. It’s all about the topic being boring or just a difficult topic in general. I wish there was some consistency for me.</p>
