I was thinking of buying one on amazon this metric steam table by Keenan and Keyes. Its $82.5. 

But was thinking about if its going to be worth it just for the purpose of using in the exam? 

I have a Metric steam tables but the Sat. Temperatures only go up to 373celcius, Sat. Pressure only up to 22MPA, the superheat is pretty good though its up to 1000MPA.

One note about the SI tables from NIST (and the MERM): the specific volumes given are in units of cm^3/g and these are only shown on the first page, whereas some other references and most of your calculations will likely be in m^3/kg. I wasn't smart enough to catch that the first time around on some problems while rushing through. I just hope I can spare someone else a headache!

Thanks for the heads up! Marked every page of the steam table so I won't miss! haha

 
Here are your best bets for both standard and SI unit steam tables (both free):

Here is a link for the best Imperial units table I could find (I did a lot of searching) http://www.tuner.tw/omega%20cd/zsection/STEAM_TA.PDF  and a GREAT compilation of SI units (tables 1, 2, and 3) here: https://www.nist.gov/sites/default/files/documents/srd/NISTIR5078.htm
Quick update on this. The link for the USCS units is no longer working, but I found the same table that used to lead to, here: https://www.bbpsales.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/3A-Appendix-Steam-Tables.pdf

The link provided by @Audi driver, P.E. for the SI tables from NIST is still functional (but it wasn't during the recent government shutdown).

The moral of the story is download them, print them, and save them.

Slay, this table is good but it cannot be printed for security reasons.

 
Coming back to this thread since there was another post about it elsewhere. The ones that @Slay the P.E. and @cvanwy02 posted above are different than the ones I had found and not as complete or not printable anyway. This will be a moot issue soon as the test goes to computer based but I scanned my copy and posted it here:

And have found another copy (a little harder to read perhaps) that contains the exact same ASME 1967 data here:

what a cognitive article. At our university http://www.kstu.kz/ scientists have developed a similar topic.
