I passed my exam! The Solomon practice tests were equal or hard than the Series 99 questions which helped me crush it! Solomon was a 10/10 experience and I will definitely recommend it to any friends and work peers. It was lifechanging.

I studied for both the SIE and the Series 99 with Solomon. Both texts more than prepared me for the exam. The practice questions in particular were extremely helpful and were even a bit more challenging than the actual exams. After reading and annotating both textbooks twice and taking each quiz multiple times to the point that I received high scores on each, I was confident taking the exam. Although there were a few questions here and there on the exams that seemed to be outside the scope of the material and had some differently worded questions, the quiz questions were quite in line with the actual exam. I passed both exams my first try. I highly recommend Solomon study material.

For the Series 99 I bought and studied the STC and the Kaplan study manuals and test banks but I pattern matching questions versus fundamentally understanding the content. I stumbled upon the Solomon test bank during a Google search and I am glad that I did. The Solomon test bank went into a lot more detail in the answers which allowed me to better understand the actual content versus just pattern recognition in the questions. Some have said that the Solomon test bank is harder than the test which I think may be true but learning the content at this level of detail is how I was able to feel confident walking in and walking out with a pass on the first attempt.

I passed my Series 65 today with an 80, first effort! Not only was the material well laid out, but if it's possible, the Solomon prep made the material palatable and understandable. Amazing!!! I have used Kaplan in the past as well as STC, which are both very good, but I chose Solomon because it had audio downloads. With an hour commute, I was able to study during that otherwise wasted time.

Additionally, the "Ask the Professor" and live chat features were excellent!! Questions were answered virtually immediately by personal email from author/owner Jeremy Solomon and he actually called me to help me and cheer me on! I didn't think this kind of customer service and general human kindness existed anymore. He even asked me to let him know personally my results which, thanks to this program, I am on the other side of this very difficult exam.

Thank you Solomon Exam Prep!!!!!

I thought you might appreciate knowing that I passed the test with a 90 today. Thanks again for all the help and good quality material that your company has. I am very glad to have used your materials and will certainly refer others to Solomon Exam Prep. (Series 6 & 63)

Matthew Baird, Gloversville, NY

I just passed the Series 63 after failed in the first attempt as of January. I had studied with another vendor and after some research, I decided to buy Solomon material. I felt very comfortable with the material since English is my second language. And due to the type of the exam, this was very important. It took me time to make the decision for the 2nd attempt but Karen was important to support and she convinced me. I felt very comfortable till question number 20, after that a bit stressful but be sure that you will know the subjects. Thanks Solomon!!!
