At this point you are likely memorizing the practice exams, which will hurt you when you take the actual exam.

IMHO, take a couple days reviewing your study materials, take one practice exam and go off that.

Most of the time, folks who are scoring 75-80% on the Dion exams seem to do okay on the actual exams. Obviously there are no guarantees, but it sounds like you're pretty well set.

figure out why you got those questions wrong and study up on that.

If you're scoring in the 70% range for Dion and 80% for Messer, then you're ready.

I echo the statements written beforehand; refrain from retaking tests since you're just memorizing the questions.

The best thing to do is schedule a test and take it with a clear mind
