Should I be concerned?

Hi,
I've averaged around 90% on the RHE mocks and about 85 on all 3 Marcus Green exams, which I think is enough to clear the exam. However, I purchased the Exam Cram book for some extra preperation and I'm averaging 75-80% on the chapter practice questions. Is it just me, or are the Exam Cram questions harder than normal? Are they comparable to the questions in the actual exam?
Thanks
Justin

IMHO you are ready to test with those mock scores!

I have taken the SCJP exam and found that the Exam Cram practice questions were harder than the actual exam. BTW, I got 84% on the final exam at the back of the Exam Cram book and got 91% on the actual exam.

IMHO = In My Humble Opinion
BTW = By The Way
Justin, I don't think you should have any problems clearing the teast. I got between 60 and 80 (80 on 1 and 3, 60 on 2) on Marcus Greens tests, and ended up with 77% on the real test.
Doing a lot of the mockexams here on the ranch is not a bad idea though. Some are even harder than the real test. But mainly they give you practice at being tested. It also teaches you to read through the question carefully, as some trick you into being other types of questions (when you encounter these types of questions, you'll know what I mean).
