Series 7: Buy And Hold

At Phillips & Co., my job was to hire entry level applicants who could successfully pass the Series 65 and Series 7 examinations in three months and do it the FIRST TIME. After trying Kaplan/Dearborn, STC, and even the Series 7 for Dummies, 85% of our applicants were still having a hard time passing.

One day while expressing my frustration to a colleague, he recommended I look up First Books' Exam Prep. I could tell immediately that this was a unique approach worth the investment. Since we implemented Exam Prep with new recruits our pass rate shot up to well over 90%.

If you or your employees want to pass your exam the first time without falling asleep while studying, I highly recommend you give their training program a try!

I found Solomon Exam Prep from a general comment that probably came from someone who works for the company. It went along the lines, "Solomon Exam Prep also has study materials for the 7" (goes to show you that inbound marketing works) I tried the STC program that most firms provide, mine included. Didn't like it, and many people on the forum that went that route mentioned they didn't feel adequately prepared for the real exam. In the STC program you can only take each quiz and practice exam 1 time. Also tried Kaplan's cheap 2 test simulation package but despised the components of the simulation, the mark for review button didn't let me go back to review the test before submitting it, and it took forever to "save" my answers before moving on to the next question. It was just a badly developed program. It wasn't improving my scores nor did it help me to better understand the material. I tried Solomon's out because it was comparable in price to Kaplan's exam simulation program but I hate Kaplan's simulator. solomon's had a larger question bank, and both provided unlimited tests which was my real requirement. Loved Solomon's exam simulator program from the start, and the Finra Concept tests combined with the simulation exams is what really improved my score. Solomon will be the only company I use to prepare for all exams I may have in the future and I highly recommend it. Solomon got a life-long repeat customer all because of a generic comment from a random forum.

Jeremy, I passed the Series 7 yesterday with an 87% using only your book and online practice tests. Thanks!

I passed the S7 TO first time it was introduced from last year. I have used several books and none of them could be as complete as this one. I am a living witness to the completeness of your course material. If that was not the case, I would not have passed this very difficult exam. I owe my success to your exam materials and no other book, from those I know have come close. I am going to study for the Series 66 through Solomon Exam Prep. If this can help me through, then I am sure many more people would also succeed.

The vocabulary on the test was slightly different, (they used the word tendered a lot) and so navigating the different financial vocabulary was a minor challenge. That being said, I felt comfortable in my knowledge and was able to break down and understand a large majority of the exam because of Solomon Exam Prep. I passed and felt confident!
I am so happy with Solomon! So far, I've passed the SIE and Series 7 exam because I used their program to study. I am currently using their program to study for the Series 66 now. The practice exams are invaluable and are the best way to learn! I would give 10/5 stars.

I would not have passed the Series 7 top off without the Solomon materials. The structure of the questions was the closest out of all the programs I tried and their customer support is top notch. I will definitely be back! Thank you!!
