2.1.1.2. Yield to Maturity

I would heartily recommend Solomon for anyone studying for the Series 3. The materials are comprehensive, the bank of questions vast and the responsiveness to questions incredibly impressive and detailed. I passed first time and that in no small part is down to Solomon.

I initially studied using a different exam prep course (The Securities Institute of America). I waited until I consistently passed the practice exams with a score over 90% before I took the actual exam and unfortunately I failed the exam on my first attempt. I discovered and purchased the Solomon Exam Prep and immediately noticed the studying material was more in depth. I waited until my practice exam score was consistently over 85% and I went to take the actual exam and passed. Thank you so much!! (Series 3)

I was using a different study program and failed my exam. Once I enrolled in Solomon’s program I not only passed, but improved by over 20%. The practice exams were very close to the language on the FINRA exams.

Dead-on Series 79 practice test questions. Thanks!

I would like to say a big thank you to Solomon for helping me pass my Series 14 exam. I took this exam the first time and missed passing by few marks. I was really sad and discouraged so reached out to Jeremy Solomon and he really took the time to talk to me and provide his guidance and advice. He also provided me with additional resources immediately to help with my second attempt. I recently passed this exam. Their study material is easy to understand and the Online Exam Simulator also has a lot of questions chapter-wise which were very helpful. Their customer service has been amazing and very responsive. Thank you Solomon. I will definitely recommend Solomon for anyone planning to take this exam.
