Which Practice exam to do?

I have a number of practice exams and have moved back and forth from each company. But considering that there are only a week and so until the exam, and unfortunately I stupidly completed all the VCAA rather then leaving it until later. So which company do you think is a good choice (or specific papers each company produced)?

Current exams at hand:
-Neap
-Mav
-Kalibah
-TSSM
-Heffernan
 
Also one other question. When you've done most of the question you know and have around 30-40minutes left. Is it better to go over the question that you're really stuck on or jump straight to correcting?

Kalibah are the hardest so they will be good if you want a challenge, in my view the MAV are the best probs most similar to VCAA

yeah, heffernan can be easier... TSSM exam 1 papers are pretty easy (I'm yet to do exam 2s), NEAP is hard and Kilbaha is harder

Well you should do the VCAA papers
Then do Heffernan
If you're not really confident after Heffernan do Insight after that (but I see they are not available for you)
Kilbaha exam 1s are good, they are not actually hard in comparison to the exam 2s which are quite off the vcaa range - do them only when you've done others first. Doing the hardest exams doesn't prepare you better than doing easier exams.
TSSM is quite good as well, do

Exam 1 in order of priority
VCAA
Heffernan
Kilbaha
Neap
MAV
TSSM

Exam 2 same as above
VCAA
Heffernan
Neap
MAV
TSSM
Kilbaha
