The Solomon material was invaluable in helping me pass this exam. The organization of the content, the tests, the video and lecture material, were all exactly on point. Thank you! (Series 54)

I used Solomon Exam Prep for both the 6 and the 63 and passed both of them on the first try. For the Series 6 I scored a 92 and for the Series 63 I scored a 75. The book was very insightful and helped quite a bit with passing, so thank you to your company.

I passed the Securities Industry Essential (SIE) exam on my first try. Now, I am studying for the next license exam, the top off exam, Series 7. Thank you Solomon Exam Prep. I am glad I bought the 1) SIE Video Premium Study Package, 2) SIE Flashcards, and, especially, 3) the hard copy. I will probably buy the same for Series 63, 7 and probably no more than two more over the next three years.

Solomon Exam Prep material was great. Explained in a way that is easy to learn and follow. Test questions really help the material sink in. I had failed the Series 66 twice using another service. When it came time to find new material for the Series 65 and Series 63 Solomon was it. I passed both the 65 & 63 with flying colors and I have Solomon to thank for that.

Jeff Champigny, Merrill Lynch, Greensboro, NC

I was very apprehensive about the Series 24 exam prior to taking it. Everyone I knew who had taken it informed me that it was an incredibly difficult test, with questions that were meant to trick you. After following Solomon's six week study outline and making flashcards for my weakest areas, I was averaging in the high 80s on the Solomon practice exams. That gave me the confidence I needed to walk into the test center feeling prepared, and the knowledge I needed to walk out of the test center having scored an 88. I am now recommending the Solomon Series 24 materials to everyone at the office!

Passed the Series 66 today! This program really helped me succeed. The pie charts helped me focus on where I needed to put in more work.
