I just finished the last exam this afternoon. So, overall, the six exams seem ok, even though some guidance answers are confusing (such as IPS for Vol 1, Exam 2, Q1). Not sure whether we can contact Schweser on that.
I find the grading guidance on the AM exams helpful because it provides guidelines to break down the scores. However, I found the guiandance answers provided by Schweser to be very concise. I remember CFAI guidance answers to previous am exams to have a lot more words/ contents than what Schweser suggests. Any thoughts on that?

I think the purpose is that you can be concise and still get full credit, no need to write too much.
