Schweser mock experience experience, difficult, easier

Question, probably for repeaters.

Did you find your performance in Schweser mocks to be predictive of the real thing? Or were they easier or more difficult?

Thanks,

The detailed questions were a little easier. For instance, they wouldn't put in some of the tricky stuff that the CFAI will put into questions, like in pension they won't try to throw you off with plan amendments and stuff, or like in equity they won't try to throw you off with a positive sign on working capital.

Overall though, I think the test was pretty similar and I think that if you can hit 70% on their mocks then you're probably well prepared for the actual exam. I've been waiting for someone to tell me that's wrong but haven't heard it yet.
