GIAC Cert Attempt: need some confidence...

For those of you that have passed the GIAC cert(s), I need some input (and hopefully some confidence). I am scheduled to take the GIAC/GSEC in a week and a half and have been studying quite a bit. I just took the SEC401 assessment test and passed pretty easily, downloaded the TCP/IP assessment pdf (from SANS) and passed pretty easily, and finally, took my first practice exam. I passed the practice exam pretty easily (87%), spending very little time looking things up and plenty of time left (over two and half hours left). So, my question is, are these tests pretty representative of the cert test I'll be taking? Or is the cert exam much harder and I need to study harder and longer. I don't plan on slacking between now and then. I'll still study, and concentrate on the areas that I didn't do so well. Thanks for your help!
