THANK YOU SOLOMON! I passed the SIE in December and Series 6 in February. I do not have a background in finance. The study materials prepared me wonderfully for the exams. I used the study schedule - took a ton of practice exams and re-read the material. Also, the testimonials were very encouraging, so I had to share that I had the same amazing experience. Thank you so much!

What does the Series 6 qualify me to do?
A Series 6 Investment Company Products/Variable Contracts Limited Representative is permitted to solicit, purchase and/or sell securities of companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, including mutual funds, initial offerings of closed-end funds, variable annuities, variable life insurance, unit investment trusts (UITs), and municipal fund securities [529 savings plans and local government investment pools (LGIPs)]. The Series 6 registration does not permit a representative to buy or sell exchange-traded funds (ETFs); to do that you need a Series 7 General Securities Representative Qualification.
