TESTIMONIALS

In preparation for the Series 7, I began with Kaplan. I tested and did not pass. I then switched to STC materials. I tested and did not pass. I then switched to Solomon and passed! I also used Solomon for the 63 and passed the first time. I highly recommend Solomon's test preparation materials. The question bank was far more extensive than the others and I definitely felt better prepared using Solomon.

After studying hard for the series 63 using materials provided by another vendor for our firm scoring mid to high 90s on practice exams I really thought I had it! WRONG! scored 67% on the actual exam...after reading reviews and testimonials decided to purchase series 63 online exam simulator and book....and wow the read is so much easier and in plain level english !! Im definitely not a fan of reading but the Solomon material is easy and enjoyable to read and the exam simulator is the key to success! i passed my Series 63 with confidence today! unfortunately i dont know my score...finra's new annoyance is they dont tell you the %..just pass.....anyways ill be back in the future!

I used Solomon Exam Prep for both the Series 7 and 63. Everyone learns differently, and they have resources for every type of learner. Their practice exams and quizzes push you to be prepared for the most difficult questions, enabling you to be over-prepared (better than the alternative!) for your exam. I received a 93% on the Series 7 and wish the regulators provided a score for the Series 63, but needless to say I passed. If I ever need to take a regulatory exam again, I will look to these guys first.

I used another exam prep for my series 6, failed it. Then came across Solomon Exam Prep. I passed series 6 once and just passed series 63 yesterday. Thanks for a great material.

I passed the Series 63 yesterday. It's been over 30 years since I took the Bar Exam, so my knowledge of the Blue Sky laws was quite stale. Your "Pass the 63" training guide and exam simulator were godsends. The writing is remarkably clear and concise and delightfully engaging. They made even the most mind-numbingly complicated securities law topic understandable. Invaluable, thank you.

Excellent study materials for the Series 63 exam. The practice exams were extremely helpful in my preparation and the exam simulator was a lifesaver as usual in solidifying what I learned (tip: read the answer explanations even if you got the question right). Highly recommend Solomon for the Series 63 exam.
