Stick to the plan and pass! 4 times in a row, 7, 63, 24 and now 79. You can't beat the Solomon materials.

Eric Altmann

Thank you Solomon! I was able to pass the SIE, 7, 63 and 24 in a relatively short time period. The practice exams with answers really helped and when I had a question for The Professor, I always received a quick and accurate response. Solomon is definitely the way to go.

I originally started studying for the series 24 with Test Teachers... After being frustrated with confusing material, out of date information, contradicting questions/answer/study guides, I bought Solomon's practice exams... After one test, two things became clear: I was grossly unprepared for the exam The material, though difficult, didn't have to be taught in such a confusing manner.I passed the 24 on the fist time because of the quality of the practice exams from Solomon. Thank you! Putting it another way...If you are using anyone else to study, you owe it to yourself and your efforts to buy the practice exams from Solomon to get a true judge of your studying efforts.

I passed my Series 24 with two weeks of nearly full-time study, using the textbook, the online class, and the exam simulator. The textbook was very readable and helpful in providing complete explanations, as well as helpful memorization tips. The online class and pre-recorded sessions were crucial to get through all of the material and put it in relative context. It was helpful to be able to have questions answered instantly and via email afterward. The online simulator questions were just like the exam questions, and the immediate feedback function was essential for learning from the practice quizzes and exam. I needed every minute of my study and practice time to count, and Solomon Exam Prep made it possible. Thank you!

I recently passed my Series 24 using Solomon Exam Prep! It was the hardest exam I've taken to date. I found all the practice exams with specific feedback to be the most helpful, though the audiobook was very helpful as well.

Between September 18 and December 3, I took exams for the Series 62, 63, 6 and 24. I studied for everything with Solomon, and passed them all on the first try. Solomon’s interactive/Ask the Professor teaching method was extremely helpful in grasping the necessary concepts. What a relief to be done. Thanks, Karen!
