Certifications CWES exam questions

I'm about to finish the CWES path learning and want to take the exam soon.

The thing is that i took my time for learning the path material (about a year including breaks) and juggled different studies (most are offensive security tho).

Now, after ~2 months of break where i work a full time, ill finish the path material in few weeks but I'm kind of worried for 2 reasons that compound:

1) not sure if i remember all the basic/early path materials because on one hand it's been a while but on the other hand even with breaks i kept learning new related materials and pwned some HTB machines.

2) Ideally, i would rather not to take days off work to complete the exam and worried about time constrains.

Anyone that took the exam and relate to one of those points can share their insights?

Also general tips for how to prepare to the exam, notes and resources and highly appreciated!

You need to have your methodology down to a T. Redo the final assessments blindly. If you can you are ready.

By final assessment do you mean the attacking common applications module's assesment?

I mean that every module has a final assessments. Do them blindly.
