Since I have yet to have gone to the lab it s hard to say for sure.
Now with that behind us:
I would think that since the CCIE ACCESSOR is supposed to be written by the sam team that writes the actual procotored lab exams that the similarity in questions and degree of difficulty and point assignments are about on an even par.
Recall the CCIE ACCESSSOR has some things down for you already, and these are things, you could miss in your lab, even though they are relatively routine items. The Devil is in the Details.
I would say that from my personal experience, I got a pretty good indicator of how I would deal with topics in the lab.
The ACCESSOR gave me some items, I ahd not seem yet or stretched my toolkit in terms of how to approach certain technologies and some caveates t be more aware of, etc.
But the same can be said for the NMC CheckIT Labs as well as the InternetworkExpert Mock Labs.
I would think the CCIE ASSESSOR is on par with easier (easiest)labs from these two vendors whom ost here are familiar with.
There are some things that can throw you for a loop.
Knowing several people who have attempted it, I would say it has been a very exact gauge for some who took their lab soon after, and some reportedly scored higher on it and then subsequently failed the lab.
Mileage varies.
