2. Key takeaways
The CSWP is made up of three segments: part modeling, part configurations and modifications, assembly modeling.
Each segment can be retaken as many times as needed, after a waiting period between two attempts.
Videos 2 and 3 detail the prerequisites and the areas of the software to work on: write them down as a review list.
Most questions are checked through a mass property: a dimension error shows up immediately in the result.
Tip
Prepare the segments one at a time, in exam order: each segment builds on habits acquired in the previous one.
