How do I use the MLP score function? Error: shapes (295,1) and (7,450) not aligned: 1 (dim 1) != 7 (dim 0) - python-3.x

Question

I have recently begun coding deep neural networks in Python and I have been stuck with this problem for weeks. I have checked other similar questions but could not grasp the solution.
I have a feed forward neural network and I am trying to obtain the R^2 value for my model. I have a dataframe of 1031 rows by 9 columns. I am fitting the first 7 columns (storm characteristics) with the water elevation as given in 8th or 9th column. Here 'h' is column heading that I am fitting with the first 7 columns.
See csv data at this link.

Test_pred = Test_pred.reshape(-1, 1)
print(mean_squared_error(Train_pred, Train_true))
print(Model.score(Test_pred, Test_true))
RunModel('11939')
And I get an error:

Please help. Any detailed explanation would be appreciated.

The line that raises the error is the following:
print(Model.score(Test_pred, Test_true))
This is not valid since .score() method of the MLPRegressor takes as inputs (X,y). Read more here: https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.neural_network.MLPRegressor.html#sklearn.neural_network.MLPRegressor.score
So, if you want to estimate the R2 coefficient of the model you need to pass the Xtest and ytest that in your case are Test.iloc[:,:7], Test_true.
