FINRA S79 Top Off?

Hey all, 

My training class is finally getting to take the S79 (delayed due to COVID) the 2nd day of November. I am getting around 80% on Knopman diagnostics (the second time), am now up to 85%+ on practice tests. Furthermore, I took a practice test on Solomon (wanted to avoid a repeat of questions) and got an 81% on the first Solomon exam. 

For those who've taken it- what was the composition of the test and how did it compare to your practice exams? Any subjects to really crank on? What showed up on the math front? 

Thanks all!
