        Adding to @sophie’s comments, I’d say:

        • Go for paper rather than computer-based practice exams. Simulate exam conditions as closely as possible, and your exam will be in paper format
        • Schweser’s Question Bank should work fine if you need extra questions. However I’m not sure if this is Mac compatible.
        • You could do more than 4 practice exams. Make sure you review the answers properly (i.e. take the time) and also do the free CFA Institute mock exam.

          Hi @mitch895, 4 practice exams isn’t really an overkill, it’s the minimum in fact. We recommend 6 practice papers for best performance.

          I’d say Schweser tends to be the most popular, closely followed by 7 City and Elan. They are all of solid quality. I personally used Schweser previously as I used their study notes as well for my preparation and ignored the curriculum due to lack of time (with hectic full time work) – hence got 2 books (6 practice papers) from them as well.
