Great advice. In my case, though, I was really relieved with the real listening section -- the practice CDs I used were much faster than the actual test, and I completely bombed the listening in the practices (like 40%). But on the test, I could understand most of it.

I might have passed. I failed the practice by only 12 points....

Hmm... scans? Where exactly are the scans for 3-kyuu? I see the answer keys, but I want to review the test itself.
