I just took my first GMAT Official Practice Test today and was pleased with my overall score, but have to question whether the Verbal section score (V45) may be too good to be true?
When taking the Verbal section of the exam, I saw 3 of 4 RC passages back to back in the beginning. Seems strange as they are normally much more spread out in the other CATs I've taken. Has anyone experienced something like this before?
I have to think it played to my advantage, because RC is not a usual strength of mine but I got 100% of RC questions correct, so maybe I was only seeing easier passages/questions as they were in the beginning of the question set? In the end, I only 5 questions wrong between CR and SC.
I'm taking this section score with a grain of salt as it is significantly highly than what I've been scoring (V37-38 range), but curious your thoughts on this?

studybuddy - Encountering 3 of the 4 RC passages at the beginning of the test is uncommon, but we have seen such a pattern even on the real-GMAT. Therefore, be prepared for all kinds of surprises come test day. Had I been in your place, I would have stayed optimistic about the V45 score, and taken another practice test to confirm my scoring ability on the verbal section. Perhaps, all the additional prep you did after scoring V37-38 is showing results now?

Not correct. Your accuracy level/performance in SC/CR does not impact the difficulty level of questions/passages in RC.
They are completely different areas and the difficulty level is tracked separately in each of these three areas.
