TESTIMONIALS
What are people saying?
I am 73 years old and have been retired for 5 years. My fulfilling career of 38 years was mainly as a portfolio manager in a trust setting. A good friend of mine recently started an RIA and asked me to consider coming to work for him. Since I loved my job and retirement is boring in comparison, the decision to jump back in was rather easy. You know the old saying: if you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life. But yes, I must first pass Series 65. The study materials and whole program you have constructed are excellent. I read the phone-book sized reading materials and took many practice exams on the website. Just this morning I sat for the test and passed. Hooray!! I am convinced that your test preparation process made the exam seem easy. So I will recommend to anyone preparing for a securities exam to definitely consider getting your program. Thanks again for your outstanding program and guidance."

I have used other providers in the past for the 62 and
decided to try something new this time due to passing that by a thin margin out
of luck. I passed the 65 first try with
an 88% all thanks to Solomon Exam Prep and its effective 5-week program. The book is thorough and easy to follow and
the endless question bank with detailed explanations ensures that you will
never see a repeat and never have to worry about question memorization (which
is CRITICAL when you are assessing how ready you are based off of practice
tests). The quizzes and exams require a
deeper level of understanding, unlike other providers that test you with
elementary questions only to leave the actual exam to feel unpleasantly
difficult. The practice quizzes provide
a very convenient way to focus on your weak areas and the full simulation exams
feel very much like the actual test and in my experience, made the real exam
seem surprisingly easy. The practice
questions also reinforce important test taking skills and taught me to approach
questions in a more disciplined way than before. Finally, I gave the “ask the professor”
function a try and they are VERY responsive and clearly have a passion for
seeing their clients succeed. I couldn’t
be happier with this program and even though you might hear about the other
test prep companies more often, Solomon IS the most effective.

I did so many
practice exams with Solomon and never saw one question twice. The quality of
study material is thorough, with a touch of humor, and gives it to you in many
formats (visual both on the computer or in book format if you wish), as well as
audio that you can listen to in the car, as well as the benefit of videos of
actual lectures from professors. I felt as though getting the information in
all those formats allowed me to really grasp the information using different
senses and facilitated the learning process even further.

Just wanted to let all of you know that I passed the 65 on 4/19/10. I got a 76%! Not the highest score, but good enough!!! Thank you so much for all your help. Your study materials (book, audio, and exam simulator) were instrumental in my passing this test the first time! I'll be sure to let any future test takers in my office know about your products! Thanks again!

I used you guys when I sat for the Series 7 two weeks prior and passed that bad boy too. The Solomon books are awesome and allowed me to pass these challenging exams [Series 65 and Series 7] the first time. Highly recommended. Thank you.

At Phillips & Co., my job was to hire entry level applicants
who could successfully pass the Series 65 and Series 7 examinations in three
months and do it the FIRST TIME. After trying Kaplan/Dearborn, STC, and even
the Series 7 for Dummies, 85% of our applicants were still having a hard time
passing.
One day while expressing my frustration to a
colleague, he recommended I look up First Books' Exam Prep. I could tell
immediately that this was a unique approach worth the investment. Since we
implemented Exam Prep with new recruits our pass rate shot up to well over 90%.
If you or your employees want to pass your
exam the first time without falling asleep while studying, I highly recommend
you give their training program a try!
