Solomon Exam Prep announces publication of the 2nd edition of The Solomon Exam Prep Guide to the Series 51 Municipal Fund Securities Exam. Written in clear English with practice questions, exercises and visual aids sprinkled throughout, the comprehensive Solomon Exam Prep Guide will get you on track to passing the Series 51 Municipal Fund Securities Limited Principal exam. Continue reading

Do you need to know about qualified tuition plans, arbitrage rules and LGIP tax-exempt status? Do SMMPs, OMSJs, and “otherwise independent persons” sound meaningful to you? If you answered yes to these questions, then you probably work in the municipal fund securities industry and you need to take the MSRB Series 51 exam.

Solomon Exam Prep announces publication of the 2nd edition of The Solomon Exam Prep Guide to the Series 51 Municipal Fund Securities Exam. Written in clear English with practice questions, exercises and visual aids sprinkled throughout, the comprehensive Solomon Exam Prep Guide will get you on track to passing the Series 51 Municipal Fund Securities Limited Principal exam.

According to Solomon Exam Prep President Jeremy Solomon, many underestimate the Series 51 exam because it’s only 60 questions long. Says Solomon: “The good thing about a shorter exam like the Series 51 is that it’s only 60 questions and it doesn’t cover as much material as other securities exams, such as the Series 7 or the Series 65. The bad thing about the Series 51 is that it’s only 60 questions and there’s less margin for error. What makes the Series 51 particularly challenging is that it covers topics that most individuals, even securities professionals, have little knowledge of: the supervision of municipal fund securities activities. Topics include LGIPs, arbitrage bonds, qualified tuition plans and the regulation of political contributions. That’s why a good text and putting in enough study time are absolutely necessary if you want to pass the Series 51 exam and achieve the Municipal Fund Limited Principal registration.”

The Solomon Exam Prep Guide to the Series 51 Exam, 2nd edition includes:

New and updated MSRB rules, per the latest MSRB exam outline

Expanded arbitrage rebate section

Discussion of A, B, and C shares and breakpoint sales in relation to 529 plans

Expanded sections on transferring funds from other savings vehicles into 529 plans

Expanded discussion of municipal fund securities principal responsibilities

Expanded discussion and examples of the pay-to-play rule

Expanded discussion of out-of-state disclosure rules for 529 plans

Updated suitability section based on new suitability rule and its application

More examples, tables, figures, exercises and practice questions

New Solomon Exam Prep Study Guides!

To ring in the New Year, Solomon Exam Prep is pleased to announce the publication of new Exam Study Guides for the FINRA Series 6, FINRA Series 7, and NASAA Series 65. Continue reading

Solomon Exam Prep has been publishing study materials for securities exams for over ten years. Keeping our materials up-to-date and constantly adding product offerings is just part of the reason why Solomon Exam Prep boasts a first-time pass rate of 92% across all exams with thousands of happy customers.

To ring in the New Year, Solomon Exam Prep is pleased to announce the publication of new Exam Study Guides for the FINRA Series 6, FINRA Series 7, and NASAA Series 65.

President and founder Jeremy Solomon emphasizes the importance of up-to-date study materials: “Once upon a time, you could use an old textbook from a friend and expect to pass your Series 7. In those pre-Dodd-Frank and Bernie Madoff days, regulations and securities licensing exams in particular, didn’t change that often. Today like everything else, the rules and the exams change at a dizzying pace. Financial scandals, and the changing views of Congress, the regulators and the courts, mean that students who want the best chance of passing need current materials. Even more so now that the required passing scores of many exams have been increased. The bar has never been higher.”

With detailed explanations, visual study aids, and example questions, these new Study Guides will keep you engaged as you prepare for your exam. Solomon Exam Prep also produces Online Exam Simulators, Audiobooks and On-Demand Study Courses to make learning even easier.

In response to the new FINRA Series 24 outline, Solomon Exam Prep restructures its Series 24 Exam Study Guide giving Solomon students the most up-to-date Series 24 study materials available.

Solomon Exam Prep is pleased to announce the publication of the online study guide, “The Solomon Exam Prep Guide: Series 24 General Securities Principal Qualification Examination, 2nd Edition” (https://solomonexamprep.com/series24/exam-study-guide).

As of October 13, 2014 FINRA has revised the Series 24 General Securities Principal Exam outline to include new rules and laws, including the adoption of rules from the consolidated FINRA rulebook. The new Series 24 exam outline will be categorized by function, rather than by the current sections. In addition, in the new Series 24 each function will include specific tasks describing activities associated with performing that function, similar to the revised Series 7 and Series 6 exam outlines.

This brand-new edition reflects the revised FINRA exam outline format for October 2014, and includes the latest information on asset-backed securities, including new sections on Regulations AB and ABII and static pool analysis. Written by Karen Solomon, Ph.D., and Al Schaller, M.A., the guide works in three mutually reinforcing ways: it focuses on the most important aspects of the exam, it provides the reader with plenty of practice questions with detailed rationales, and it continually reminds them of the importance of taking the test in the first place: to protect investors.
