Series 7 Actual vs Knopman Practice

Planning to take the Series 7 soon and was wondering what the actual test was like compared to the Knopman practice exams

I heard the actual exam is much much wordier and more difficult, was wondering if that sounds right

thanks guys!

If the pattern continues it’ll likely be more difficult than Knopman’s exam. My Series 79 was certainly more difficult than the KM tests. Luckily I still passed but Knopman makes you think you’ll pass the exams with ease if you’re scoring well on their tests. That is not the case
