Can pp/bigbook RC passages appear in real exam?

[e.cartman]

I was wondering if any RC passage from bigbook or powerprep ever appears in the actual exam. That would be such a windfall. You can gain so much time if it does. Does anybody know of anyone getting a known RC? (If so, we could allocate some additional effort to remember the right answers for questions we got wrong during preparation)

I don't think they use questions from practice materials on the actual test, although there was some talk that they might consider it. But very often the topics are similar even if it's not the same passage. Also if it's on a subject that you're familiar with then the passage is easier to understand. Like I can usually follow the biology passages quite well using my own general knowledge.
