General Obligation Bonds

GO bonds are sold to fund the general operating expenses of the municipal government or to provide funds for capital improvement projects, such as roads, parks, courthouses, and schools. They are backed by the full faith and credit of the issuer, which means that the issuer must use its full taxing and borrowing authority to ensure the timely payment of principal and interest.

I have used other providers in the past for the 62 and decided to try something new this time due to passing that by a thin margin out of luck. I passed the 65 first try with an 88% all thanks to Solomon Exam Prep and its effective 5-week program. The book is thorough and easy to follow and the endless question bank with detailed explanations ensures that you will never see a repeat and never have to worry about question memorization (which is CRITICAL when you are assessing how ready you are based off of practice tests). The quizzes and exams require a deeper level of understanding, unlike other providers that test you with elementary questions only to leave the actual exam to feel unpleasantly difficult. The practice quizzes provide a very convenient way to focus on your weak areas and the full simulation exams feel very much like the actual test and in my experience, made the real exam seem surprisingly easy. The practice questions also reinforce important test taking skills and taught me to approach questions in a more disciplined way than before. Finally, I gave the “ask the professor” function a try and they are VERY responsive and clearly have a passion for seeing their clients succeed. I couldn’t be happier with this program and even though you might hear about the other test prep companies more often, Solomon IS the most effective.

I am delighted to be able to tell you that I passed my Series 65 exam on my first attempt earlier today. Although I am an experienced adviser my work has previously all been in the UK and servicing UK Expats so have had no previous experience in the US or its regulatory framework. My only resource was the Solomon Exam Prep module for Series 65. It had everything I needed including prompt (super quick) responses to queries from real people. Even on a Sunday which I find incredible. A big thank you to you and the whole staff; I have recommended you to a number of people and will continue to do so; worth every penny.

I began the process of studying for the Series 65 in October of 2013. I studied with two other exam prep companies. The result, a 70% each time.

Then, I bought Solomon’s Exam Prep 65. As I did with the other two, I went step by step, and when it said I was ready I sat for the exam! Boom! 80%, passing all four sections at once! So if you’re surfing the internet right now wondering who to go with….STOP….Solomon’s is the right choice for today’s professional to get the licensing you need done the first time, not the third!

Passed my Series 65 on the first try! Solomon really has everything you need to pass. I followed the recommended schedule and took a ton of practice tests. This gave me a ton of confidence and it paid off!

I finally passed the Series 65! I’m writing today to send you a very sincere Thank you for all the professional support and emotional guidance you have provided. I was emotionally beat up and almost ready to give in on my endeavor of passing the Series 65 and becoming an Investment Advisor Firm. After becoming unemployed and having a tremendous time focusing on the study material, you provided additional months and material access for no additional Fee! You also mentioned I should be able to teach the material and then I’ll be ready for the exam. By the gracious caring and professional sharing of your wisdom, it provided me to find my path to passing the Series 65! The three items that really helped was to Study like I’m going to teach it, memorizing and learn by over studying, and getting plenty of sleep and rest. Thank you to you, your family, and pro team for all you have done. I am very blessed and humbled to have met you all in this challenging time of my life. Happy Holidays, and Have a Safe and Happy New Year!

I passed the 63 and 65 the practice questions are much more difficult than the actual exam. I would recommend this program to anyone who needs to be challenged and wants to pass the first time out.
