Just passed my Series 7 using Solomon Exam Prep! Have used Solomon for my Series 79 as well. Both study programs are excellent and felt well prepared sitting for my exams. Would recommend to others in the industry.

Completing
the Series 7 was a requirement for my current position. After seeing the
material and dedication Solomon Exam Prep put into the SIE material, I knew
Solomon’s material would be perfect for me again. I had access to STC material
and tried to go through it first but it was too content heavy and at certain
points, very confusing. I decided to move back over to Solomon for the 7 and
was blown away yet again by how great the material is. Solomon has figured out
how to properly prepare people for this exam in my opinion. Solomon Exam Prep
focuses on teaching the concept rather than bogging you down with so much
material. THAT IS SO HELPFUL! Of course the material is important but it’s
extensive. After using Solomon Exam Prep for the Series 7, I was able to fully
understand the concepts which made it so much easier to select the best
questions on the exams. All the other training programs bury you deep with
content, which makes it almost impossible to understand the concepts. If you
get questions on the exam that you have not seen before, only knowing specific
material will not help you. But if you understand the concepts (like Solomon
Exam Prep helped me do) you can break down the question and find the best
answer based on your understanding of the concept as a whole. That’s a much
better method and Solomon Exam Prep has figured this out! I strongly suggest
buying the study guide. You won’t regret it!

Thanks to Solomon I was able to pass the SIE, Series 7, and Series 63, great study material if you put the hours in!

I had a super rough go passing this (Series 7) exam due to a number of personal circumstances, but on my third attempt, I finally passed, with 30 minutes to spare! After my second failed attempt (I failed by ONE question), I spoke to Jeremy Solomon on the phone and via email, and he provided me with some strategies to help me pass the exam once and for all. I focused heavily on rereading the study guide, and teaching concepts to my spouse so that I wasn’t just learning the information, but really understanding it to the point where I could teach it to someone else. The exam simulators are super helpful, but don’t overdo it… this really isn’t the kind of test where you can only learn by doing practice questions. Re-watching the video lectures was very helpful for me as well. I also recommend making flash cards for memorization purposes. If you fail like me, don’t give up - perseverance (and more studying) will get you to the finish line!

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!

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!
