I took REG yesterday.

First testlet: Easy (4 wrong maybe)

Second testlet: Outrageously hard (flagged almost half)

Third testlet: Easy (3-4 wrong maybe)

I know for sure I got a harder testlet #2. I am wondering if doing really bad on this testlet destroyed my chances of passing? Anyone ever have a similar situation as me where they got 2 medium and 1 hard (which they did bad on for sure) and still ended up passing? disregarding sims

Any input appreciated! thank you

I'm not sure that anybody can definitively answer that, since we don't always know for sure if testlets are deemed difficult or not, and flagging questions doesn't necessarily mean you did poorly on it. You also had to have gotten a lot of points on the testlet before in order to get a harder testlet next. Plus I don't think you can disregard sims in that scenario, since if you truly do fail a harder MCQ testlet, maybe you could still pass if you do really well on sims (they are worth 40% of the score).

I felt like I passed both REG and AUD because of excellent sim performance.
