I think the reason that the NET was harder was because there is literally NO TIME to read the passages and sort the answers out. I don't want to make you nervous, but all the answers (a, b, c, d,) are practically the same with one or two words different. And I took the paper version, which we were not allowed to write on so you can't cross out answers. But I did hear that the online NET was easier, but TWU only wanted paper versions. So if you are taking it online, it could be easier. Just make sure you can read the passage and be able to answer questions without really going back to read. I had to guess on 6 questions since I didn't finish the reading. Every other section was easy. But the reading comp is what counts so it doesn't really matter if the other sections are easy or not. It could actually be easy for you since people do differently on tests, ya know? I am not telling you this to scare you, I just want you to be prepared.

I wish someone had told me this before I took my test, but everyone was so darn competitive that no one spoke up.
