TESTIMONIALS
What are people saying?
My oldest son purchased your Solomon audio exam guide to pass his Series 7, and I did the same for the Series 65 exam at his recommendation. Although I am 62 and have been out of college for forty(40) years, I passed my Series 65 exam on my first try. This would NOT have been possible without your excellent study materials. Thank you! for the service you provide to all aspiring test takers where so much is on the line!
Most Sincerely,

Feels so good to have
passed! (Series 7) It was about as challenging as I thought it would be and I'm glad the
study material prepared me for understanding the concepts, and not just
memorizing terms and formulas. Only changed two of the 15 answers for questions
I flagged for review and finished it with more than 90 minutes to spare. The
relief I felt upon seeing "Pass" was awesome!
Used Solomon materials for both the SIE and S7. So grateful to
these materials for helping me achieve a passing score on my first attempts of
both exams. The study guide and videos were thorough, comprehensive and easy to
follow. I found the pie charts extremely useful in helping me identify areas
where I needed more study, and was grateful for the Pass Probability feature in
giving me a bit of extra confidence before sitting for the exam. I would
absolutely recommend all of their materials to anyone taking this journey.

I found Solomon Exam Prep from a general comment that probably came from someone who works for the company. It went along the lines, "Solomon Exam Prep also has study materials for the 7" (goes to show you that inbound marketing works)
I tried the STC program that most firms provide, mine included. Didn't like it, and many people on the forum that went that route mentioned they didn't feel adequately prepared for the real exam. In the STC program you can only take each quiz and practice exam 1 time.
Also tried Kaplan's cheap 2 test simulation package but despised the components of the simulation, the mark for review button didn't let me go back to review the test before submitting it, and it took forever to "save" my answers before moving on to the next question. It was just a badly developed program. It wasn't improving my scores nor did it help me to better understand the material.
I tried Solomon's out because it was comparable in price to Kaplan's exam simulation program but I hate Kaplan's simulator. solomon's had a larger question bank, and both provided unlimited tests which was my real requirement.
Loved Solomon's exam simulator program from the start, and the Finra Concept tests combined with the simulation exams is what really improved my score.
Solomon will be the only company I use to prepare for all exams I may have in the future and I highly recommend it. Solomon got a life-long repeat customer all because of a generic comment from a random forum.

I found encouragement along the way from reading other people's testimonials, so payback is to write one of my own. Solomon is the gold standard for customer service. I passed the 66, SIE first tries -- received a 69% on the 7 (failed), but passed on the 2nd attempt. I'm in awe over the outreach I received from day 1 but especially from Jeremy on how to move forward after falling short on the Series 7 - followed his advice - one of which was to get the accompanying videos and passed. Watching/studying the Chapter 5 video had a big impact. I also printed the questions I got wrong that I particularly struggled with while taking the online exams, printed and/or turned them into flashcards, then taped many of them around the house. It forced me to constantly revisit the information and moved me past a superficial understanding. I'll take a messy-looking home for a short time than having to retake a 3 hour and 45 minute exam.

Thank you...thank you.
I took my Series 7 yesterday and passed....1st try.
Read the whole book 3 times.
My system was to go through and answer the questions I was positive about.
Good guess at the others and park them for review.
The hardest part is trying to understand what they are actually asking.
This way I wasn’t bogged down and stressed being stuck on a question.
Second time around go through all those parked questions...digging deeper...checking my calculations etc. again parking the ones that totally stumped me.
Third time around....educated guesses and what seemed to make sense.
Also, on my way there, I was picturing myself in the room....sitting at the computer (yes, I took a dry run to see the inside). It took that part of the unknown out of the equation.
Be prepared for the masks and Covid precautions.
Any options questions, as tricky as they make them, I would look at my charts and was able to make sense of what they were asking.
Finished the test in record time.
Being prepared gave me the confidence to get through it.
Many thanks

Used Solomon for my second & third time. First time I used a different company & day of test, I had no idea what I was reading. Second time, I bought Solomon a little too close to my test date, failed but had a higher score. Third Time, used strictly Solomon & passed! Cant thank Solomon enough, will recommend to everyone!
