I have found this to be the general consensus of difficulty (for level 1 at least)

Qbank Schweser Actual Exam Mock Exam provided by CFA

I only have a few friends/co-workers taking the level 2 and they say about the same for 2.

62% on 2013 CFAI mock. I was waaay overprepared last year for L1 (and was hitting just around 70% on the CFAI mocks), so I am thinking I am actually right where I want to be for L2.

Good luck folks!

if you like it then you shoulda put a banana on it
 

Scored between 69-79 on Schweser mocks. Scored 68% both morning and afternoon on the CFAI mock.

Just finished all 6 of the schweser mocks and the CFAI mock... 66% effectively over the 7. Was high 80's going in to level 1. It should still be enough to pass (I hope) but shit, it's cutting it close. Think I'm just going to chill on the couch until exam time now.
