The (SIE) exam was tough, but I was well prepared after studying with the Solomon Exam Prep guides. Having a set study schedule made this much easier to follow along. I'll definitely be using Solomon for my Series 6 and 63 exams!

Solomon's study materials and practice exam helped prepare me quickly and made me confident going into the SIE exam. I'm happy to have used their services and highly recommend their products for the SIE exam.

Within a few months, I passed the SIE, Series 7, 63, 65, & 79 exams all on the first try using Solomon Exam Prep. This material will prepare you for the actual exam. I will say in many instances the practice exams are more difficult than the actual exam. Solomon and the various tracking metrics will more than help you prepare for the rigors of exam day. I highly recommend the practice exams and ability to dive back in to review weak areas. I will continue to use their products and services in the future.

I've used the Solomon exam prep materials for both my SIE and Series 6 exams and passed both on the first try! The audio materials are a lifesaver and a great resource to utilize, especially while driving. Also, your team is fantastic! I reached out through the "Ask the Professor" option while studying for the SIE and the response and additional help was exactly what I needed. I highly recommend Solomon! Thanks again!

Thank you so much Solomon Exam Prep. I took the SIE exam today and passed it the first try. Couldn't have done it without your help. Thank you again.

When I first signed up for the SIE I was overwhelmed. The topic range was so broad. I began studying the study guide and listened to the audiobook. I also watched the video lectures. The information began to sink in. What really put me over the top was when I signed up for and attended the live class. Our instructor, JD Page, helped me to remember the most important pieces of information for the test. He not only gave us facts, but the reasons behind the facts. It really helped to cement the material into my mind. When I went in for the SIE Exam, I was able to move through the questions quickly and even had enough time to go through every question again. Thank you Solomon Test Prep!
