Series 65: Direct Registration System (DRS)

I passed my Series 65 today with an 80, first effort! Not only was the material well laid out, but if it's possible, the Solomon prep made the material palatable and understandable. Amazing!!! I have used Kaplan in the past as well as STC, which are both very good, but I chose Solomon because it had audio downloads. With an hour commute, I was able to study during that otherwise wasted time.

Additionally, the "Ask the Professor" and live chat features were excellent!! Questions were answered virtually immediately by personal email from author/owner Jeremy Solomon and he actually called me to help me and cheer me on! I didn't think this kind of customer service and general human kindness existed anymore. He even asked me to let him know personally my results which, thanks to this program, I am on the other side of this very difficult exam.

Thank you Solomon Exam Prep!!!!!

Solomon Exam Prep material was great. Explained in a way that is easy to learn and follow. Test questions really help the material sink in. I had failed the Series 66 twice using another service. When it came time to find new material for the Series 65 and Series 63 Solomon was it. I passed both the 65 & 63 with flying colors and I have Solomon to thank for that.

Well, I finally was able to take my Series 65 and passed with an 85%. I think that the combination of your Series 65 text along with our other vendor made all the difference. It was good to have an additional reference for clarity and in some cases more detailed and straight forward discussion. Thank you for the materials.

I wanted to add my testimonial to the long list of successful test-takers. Passed my Series 65 today on the first try! The materials were well written and made the concepts easier to understand (especially to someone with no background in finance like myself). I was a big fan of the audio format as I have a long drive back and forth to work (other test prep providers did not have this option). The test simulators were also a huge help. Thanks to the folks at Solomon Prep!

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 Solomon to prep for my Series 65 exam. I was extremely impressed with how prepared I was for the actual exam! After reviewing the chapter material and taking 7-10 quizzes for each chapter, I was scoring around a 75 average on the practice exams, I wasn't sure that would be enough to pass. However, on exam day I felt extremely confident with the material, and I passed the 65 on my first attempt with about 45 minutes to spare. Extremely satisfied with how Solomon teaches the material to truly make it stick, and also with the progress statistics that they show you, so you know what to work on. I would 100% recommend it to anyone trying to pass their Series exams!
