so general consensus is that the exams in book 2 are too difficult in comparison to the real exam?
Yes, and too calculation intensive
I can add - in this book, exam 2, Morning is extreme. Do you think like me? I scored 40 % first time.
I’d like to bump this to see if anyone else would like to share his opinion of Schweser’s V2 for L2. I think they are quite difficult but I value they rigor the impress. They prepared me well for L1 in Dec’ 09. Exam 1: AM (65%) PM (76.67%) Exam 2: AM (75%) PM (Taking Tonight)

First practice test I took, I think I just gave up at some point.
Yikes, probably not worth it then. If CFAI mock/samples are any indication, they are def NOT excessive on the calc or reasoning.
