Practising a subject versus sitting a full paper
Subject practice is for finding out which topics you actually lose marks on; a full paper is for finding out whether you can hold accuracy for two hours with the clock running. They are not substitutes. Use the subject tests while you are still learning a topic, then go back to a full 2019 paper to see whether it survived the time pressure.
