I'm bumping this thread to agree that you can get by with no studying and the CERM alone in the AM. I didn't study for the AM at all, used only the CERM as a reference and scored a 32/40. We'll see how the actual test goes in a week of course. But I found the PM to be much more complex (28/40 here) and chose to study harder on the structural PM topics. 
There are always those people you hear about who pass with little/no studying but, in general, I think it is a poor strategy to rely on and poor advice to give.  But I guess each examinee can decide for themselves.

You didn't pass with a 60/80? Or are you referring to a practice test...

To be fair I said you could get by and not specifically recommending it. I was explaining my experience to add this thread. I guess my real advice would be to take the NCEES practice exam as if it were exam day and see where you stand.
