Ive never used the computer program solidworks and i have to take the CSWA exam next week. I looked at some practice problems and i couldnt replicate any of the designs so do i hvae a chance? Are there any tips about how to pass it because i know its multiple choice. I have to take it for a class and it has no impact on mygrade so ill just try and do my best but most answers will be guesses..

I am sorry I don't know anything about Solidworks as its not a Autodesk product I don't cover it. I would assume you will need to do some sort of formal training before you undertake that exam. If you haven't I would advise you do get some before you take it.
