Hi I heard from a lot of people that ASM PEs after the first five are much harder than the actual test.
However, I would like to attempt some of them since it's good to expose myself to the extremely difficult questions before the exam. Anyone thought which were easier than the rest?

Do exams 6 and 7. I've been doing TIA's and ASM 1-5 but also took ASM 6-7 and actually did surprisingly well. Just be careful not to get hung up on any one question too long (there's a lot of hard ones at the beginning). Also have the confidence to really break a problem down. There's many questions that seem daunting at first but if you just label everything and write out as many equations as you can things start to come together.
I've been averaging 17-22 and I just got a 23 on ASM 7 today.

However, I can only pick one extra. My exam is on Monday and I don't want to do just practice exams. I think I did enough already. I need to spend some time this weekend to go over my old practice exam once more before finally closing the books. So far I took 11 practice exams. The mean of those scores, I would say is about 25. I really hope I finish strong.

If you're averaging 83% then you're going to pass unless you're some type of nervous wreck when it comes to taking exams. I'm sitting monday as well.
I've been averaging probably 21 over 9 PE's and I'm pretty confident I'll pass. Of course, I'd like to get a 9 or 10, but that's not what counts.
