Thank you! Ive been so confused about whether I took the right decision because PE is a really difficult line to break into and I thought I was losing out on an inroad. But your post really helped. My work& promotions will be much more structured at Google. Thanks so much!

Thanks Eli..Just another follow up question-
How many days before the exam should I stop giving practice tests(full length)? Also- is it a good idea to do timed sets of problems the day before the exam- or should I just relax and do nothing?
Thanks for your time
