I took this Series 28 today and passed on my first try! I think the practice exams helped a ton, though in general, I would say the actual test seemed (at least to me), more difficult than the practice exams. Either way, couldn't have done it without the Solomon Exam Prep.

I wanted to let you know I passed my Series 28 today!! Thanks for great prep materials. I have been working really long hours at my job and it was a challenge finding the time to study. The video lectures proved to be a big help. I’m glad that exam is over!!!

Last August 2020 I passed the Series 28 on the first try using your materials. I just wanted to drop in and let you know I passed the Series 27 exam today!! I am so happy today as I took the test in Jan of this year and missed it by 3 points. I switched up my focus and really zoned in the most heavily weighted chapters. This is by far the hardest exam I have taken. Thank you Solomon for your excellent study materials. I'll be back when I pass the next one ;)

The Solomon Exam Prep helped me pass the Series 7. The material is precise to the questions in the exam. The people at Solomon provided great assistance and communication.

I felt well prepared. Exam experience went well. The exam prep content was spot on! I had studied previously under a different exam prep course and felt the content was not doing the trick. I was not prepared and needed to rethink my study approach. Luckily after taking the Solomon course I felt completely different and very prepared! The dashboard, lectures and specific detail to the areas where I needed improvement helped me pass the test! I felt so confident thanks to the preparation process and content Solomon provided. Thank you!! It was a great experience preparing with Solomon!

I used Solomon Exam Prep for both the Series 7 and 63. Everyone learns differently, and they have resources for every type of learner. Their practice exams and quizzes push you to be prepared for the most difficult questions, enabling you to be over-prepared (better than the alternative!) for your exam. I received a 93% on the Series 7 and wish the regulators provided a score for the Series 63, but needless to say I passed. If I ever need to take a regulatory exam again, I will look to these guys first.
