Thank you so much for your great study materials! I have used you to pass my Series 6, 63 and most recently my Series 7 all on the first try. The practice exams and video lectures were great and extremely helpful. Will definitely be using your study material for any future exams and will recommend you to other people

Just passed the series 7 today! Solomon was a huge help, as I used the practice exams exclusively. When preparing for this exam, make sure to allocate ~70% of your time on compliance, opening accounts etc. Looking forward to passing the series 66. I will continue using Solomon!

The series 7 quizzes were what made the study material the best. I just passed the series 7, it was my second time with Solomon. I Passed the SIE first attempt with their study material and it took me until the second attempt to pass the series 7 with their study material. The unlimited practice quizzes was what helped me pass. What an exciting day! I will be using them for the next 63 or 66!

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.

Solomon's study structure and varying mediums of study make it interactive and easy to learn.. It's an amazing deal for the tools received. I would highly recommend this program!

I passed first try! Three hours and forty-five minutes might seem like a long time, but it flew by. The Solomon Exam Prep conditioned me very well. Utilizing the chapter quizzes and practice exams really helped apply my learning, and also helped with time management. (Series 7)
