I am preparing to take the CSWP-MM Exam next week, and took the practice exam in preparation. I have no prior knowledge of mold making apart from some YouTube videos and the SolidWorks tutorials. I finished the practice test in about 30 minutes, and got all 4 questions right, but it took some on-the-fly learning to resolve the parting line on the straddle face and create a side core.

How does the difficulty of the practice test prepare me for the real thing? Should my ad-lib success be enough to get me through the real test? If not, what are some important techniques that I should be learning to prepare?

Thanks in advance
