CFA I Mock vs. Actual actual, provided

Is the mock exam provided by the CFA Institute a good representation of the actual exam?

The mock exam is to help you determine areas in which you might need to improve. I don't think it's ever intended to give you a representation of the actual exam. Maybe the format and what not.

I think it is similar in terms of level of difficulty of questions - I find Schweser to be calculation heavy while CFA test questions are more theory heavy. But a couple things to keep in mind - the mock exam only covers a small percentage of the overall material and the stress of the test day will always make the questions seem much more difficult.
