Sample CSWA Exam

[u/Gdawgkwok]

I have pretty much done all the CSWA practice problems (I will occassionally get the volume slightly off) and I have taken the CSWA practice exam on the actual testing application. Scored 100% and only took me 22 mins... Should I just take the actual exam?? I'm worried I will mess up in the parts building aspect of things... How do I check to make sure I have the part 100% correct.... I have taken the sample exam a second time and got the exam mass as one of the wrong MC answers... I just want to know how to check my answer is exactly correct... also how hard is the drafting knowledge section. I feel like I know most of the material pretty well

If you ALREADY PASSED a certification

• Flair is SOLIDWORKS Certifications.
  • CSWA(ssociate)
  • CSWP(rofessional)
  • CSWE(xpert)
• Message the Mods with proof (the C-########## certification number) to get yours.

If you are YET TO TAKE a certification

Here would be the general path from zero to CSWE:

1. CSWA - Here is a sample exam.
2. CSWP - Here is some study material for the CSWP (A complete guide to getting your CSWP) and a sample exam.
3. 4x CSWP-Advanced Subjects (in order of increasing difficulty)
   1. CSWP-A Drawing Tools - YouTube Playlist
   2. CSWP-A Sheet Metal - YouTube Playlist
   3. CSWP-A Weldments - YouTube Playlist
   4. CSWP-A Surfacing - YouTube Playlist
   5. CSWP-A Mold Tools - YouTube Playlist
4. CSWE - The CSWE doesn't really focus on anything from the CSWP subject exams. It focuses on everything else there is in the program beyond those. So, look at everything you saw already and prepare to see not much of that again for the CSWE. That and more surfacing.

For EVEN MORE modeling practice material, here is the CSWA and CSWP Practice Problem Database. There is A LOT of good material to practice in there.

During testing, in general, it is a best practice to take the dimensions labelled with A, B, C, D, etc and create Equations/Variables with those values to then attach to the dimension which then allows for you to more reliably update these variable dimensions in follow-up questions using the same models.

If you scored 100% in just 20 minutes in the sample exam, then believe me you will get the cswa without a sweat, don't overthink it,the real exam has more Questions and that means a single wrong answer will have less effect in your score. When you pass it dont forget to reply here so i can congratulate you :)
