TESTIMONIALS
What are people saying?
Dear Solomon Team,
Happy to inform you that I took and passed the Series 7 this past Tuesday. I
was not able to prepare as much as I had planned, and would not recommend
someone taking the exam at the point I was at in my preparation, but the
circumstances demanded it and it worked out. The depth and breadth of material
I was able to cover with Solomon obviously played no small part. I am deeply
grateful for your partnership for both the SIE and the 7 top-off as I
transition from law practice into an RIA compliance role. This has been a big
change and your materials and support have been indispensable. I want to
particularly note that your audiobook feature is a key distinguishing factor
for me. It undoubtedly helped me absorb the material and is an ideal complement
to material that is presented in such a way as to benefit those of us who need
to learn the “why’s” in the material and not just a series of
independently-existing spontaneously-combusted facts. I’m sure both methods
work for exam takers, but Solomon excels in the former. Also, as a dad to a
half-dozen crew and an auditory learner, an audiobook format helps when your
geographic coordinates at the start of a lesson are not the same as those at
the end. Thanks again to everyone at Solomon!

Completing
the Series 7 was a requirement for my current position. After seeing the
material and dedication Solomon Exam Prep put into the SIE material, I knew
Solomon’s material would be perfect for me again. I had access to STC material
and tried to go through it first but it was too content heavy and at certain
points, very confusing. I decided to move back over to Solomon for the 7 and
was blown away yet again by how great the material is. Solomon has figured out
how to properly prepare people for this exam in my opinion. Solomon Exam Prep
focuses on teaching the concept rather than bogging you down with so much
material. THAT IS SO HELPFUL! Of course the material is important but it’s
extensive. After using Solomon Exam Prep for the Series 7, I was able to fully
understand the concepts which made it so much easier to select the best
questions on the exams. All the other training programs bury you deep with
content, which makes it almost impossible to understand the concepts. If you
get questions on the exam that you have not seen before, only knowing specific
material will not help you. But if you understand the concepts (like Solomon
Exam Prep helped me do) you can break down the question and find the best
answer based on your understanding of the concept as a whole. That’s a much
better method and Solomon Exam Prep has figured this out! I strongly suggest
buying the study guide. You won’t regret it!

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!!

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 passed first try!
Three hours and forty-five minutes might seem like a long time, but it flew by. The Solomon Exam Prep
conditioned me very well. Utilizing the chapter quizzes and practice exams
really helped apply my learning, and also helped with time management. (Series 7)
