The true benefit from the Schweser practice exams is going through all of them (all 6 complete exams). Once you plug your scores in for each exam you will receive a cumulative score for all of the exams per the performance tracker function. Through all of those exams schweser will questioned you on all of LOS's at least once (trusted me I've studied this in depth and I only found one or two that didn't show up on the exams). The downside of the schweser practice exams is you're going to be tested on a high number of LOS's that will not be on the exam. Some would argue that using the CFAI's Mock and Sample exams are more representative of the actual exam because they will be testing you on LOS's that will more than likely be on the exam. My guess is you will be tested on less than 300 LOS on exam day....that leaves approximately 250 or more LOS on the table. So, if you're going to use the schweser practice exams, knock them out at week 5 and 6 before the exam so you can spend the last 4 weeks going through the CFAI Mock and Sample exams and completing a strong final review.
