If you can't do any of the practice problems, you are leaving yourself little chance of passing the test. If you want to put in any effort into passing the exam, then try searching for practice videos of solidwork designs. They exist out there (I've watched a couple). Otherwise, if you don't care about passing it, since it has no weight on your grade in the class, then just take guesses on the exam when the time comes. Just depends on if you want to learn the software or not. If you are in an engineering major, then I would recommend learning Solidworks. It would be a great resume builder. Many companies look for candidates to be proficient in a CAD software.
