I want to practice the audio cue training on the Jantzen sim but it doesn't seem to work. Did anyone else have trouble?

For example it will say 1/4 cues correct regardless if I try to do anything or not. The emergency sim works great though.

Don't worry about what score it displays. Just get your reps in; you'll know if you got it wrong or right

Does anyone know if this is a good study guide and practice test? Is it similar to what someone might see on the real test?

Specifically, the Jantzen Sim scores dichotic listening wrong - on the real test, you’re either triggering or clutching for odd or even (forget which one it is) and the only thing that changes is which ear you’re listening for odd or even in. The Jantzen adds additional rules that don’t apply in the real test. So ignore its scoring and just do it the way the test does it to build muscle memory.
