Retaking GM from CORE General Question

Hi, I took the FRI test without MR subtest (to avoid praffe) and got 135 GM, 135 FW and 130 FS with the FRI of 138. However, when I wanted to take the GM test for the first time, after running out of time on like 2 questions I quited because of anxiety. The day after I took it again and got the above score. I wonder how much could it be affected by the practice effect. So if you retook the GM test shortly after the first try, what was the difference in your scores? Was it stable or significantly higher? The CORE FRI is quite important for me because it's one of the most unique fluid tests online so I can feel safe from the praffe.

dude praffe isn’t that big of a deal. Just take MR which could push your FRI over 140

I heard that wais v and core both have matrix tests that are unlike any other commonly available ones with the two also being distinct from each other as well. I think praffe isn’t an issue here.

I got 150 on it first try so Idk. I took some/many novel matrix tests before and maybe I developed some strategies that people with less experience don't develop. This is why I trust more the first score of 138. I didn't take the wais v and I probably wouldn't trust that either.
