    I’ve seen some mixed opinions on practice exams vs. just crunching MCQ’s. But I just finished all the Wiley Materials, my test is March 9th. I plan on using Ninja MCQ’s to supplement, but should I even give the practice exams the time of day?

    Slightly helpful if this is your first exam to work on your timing, but your practice exam SIMs are probably going to be fluff compared to the real SIMs, so you might finish your practice with lots of time left.

    You have three weeks until exam time. The two practice exams will probably take a max of 3 hours each. Take the practice exams and you'll still have plenty of time for a final review

    The bigger issue is will you ever be able to access Wiley's content with all of the problems they have?

    @Bourne funny you say that because I made this post because I just got booted off of my software after starting the first 2 SIMs…

    So did I. Trying to deal with Wiley's software issues is almost as bad as the exam prep itself. I'm pretty sure no other review course has these problems. It takes talent to have this many problems lol

    I'm planning to take mines for timing purposes. I've heard that it helps for that, but otherwise studying the material, doing multiple choice questions, and look at some sims.

    I usually take a couple of practice exams. Sometimes they feel like a waste of time because the practice exams don't really tell you what sections or subjects you scored low on. But it always gives me a good idea of what I will score on the real exam.
