Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. Having the audio, video lectures (with the printable power-point!) and exam simulator in addition to the book really engages you in the material. It becomes a game! I passed the 66 with an 84%.

Colleen Shelly, PNC Investments, Cleveland, OH

Jeremy and team, thank you for your excellent study materials and your availability to provide guidance and feedback as I was able to pass my Series 66 on the first try... The most telling confirmation your training materials are top notch... when I sat for my exam, once the test started and I read the first question, I instantly knew from my studies using the Solomon training, I was going to handle the test. Being able to sense this from the first question was more than comforting. Thank you again!

After hearing horror stories about people struggling and in some cases failing the Series 66, after easily passing the series 7, I invested in both the Series 66 audio book and the Series 66 on-line tests. I passed my Series 66 exam with an 87%!

Mardee Formales, Wells Fargo, San Diego, CA

I passed the Series 66 exam with an 83 this morning! I wanted to personally thank you for all the help you have given me. Your method of presenting the information needed to pass these exams is outstanding (I only had two weeks to study). In the future I wouldn't even consider using another resource to tackle the preparation for a Series exam. Moving forward in my career I will be sure to pass this information on to friends and colleagues without hesitation.

Michael F. Lee, Jr. Hatteras Funds, Raleigh, NC

Thank you so much for your great study materials! I have used Kaplan in the past and this is so much better! I used your study materials to get an 84% on my Series 7 and an 85% on my Series 66! Keep up the good work!

Ivan Griffin, Roach, MO

I used Solomon Exam Prep for both the Series 7 and the 66 which I took within a couple of months of each other. I smoked both tests with an 85% and an 88%. Well above the passing score. The books have just enough humor to keep things interesting and the practice tests and quizzes are phenomenal. If you want to get the most out of these programs pound out as many practice test as you can.
