Great service, practice questions and mock exams were the key to passing. (Series 3)

Darragh Lenihan, Global Commodities Holdings Limited. Singapore

I initially studied using a different exam prep course (The Securities Institute of America). I waited until I consistently passed the practice exams with a score over 90% before I took the actual exam and unfortunately I failed the exam on my first attempt. I discovered and purchased the Solomon Exam Prep and immediately noticed the studying material was more in depth. I waited until my practice exam score was consistently over 85% and I went to take the actual exam and passed. Thank you so much!! (Series 3)

I would heartily recommend Solomon for anyone studying for the Series 3. The materials are comprehensive, the bank of questions vast and the responsiveness to questions incredibly impressive and detailed. I passed first time and that in no small part is down to Solomon.

David Woolfenden Totem London

I began the process of studying for the Series 65 in October of 2013. I studied with two other exam prep companies. The result, a 70% each time.

Then, I bought Solomon’s Exam Prep 65. As I did with the other two, I went step by step, and when it said I was ready I sat for the exam! Boom! 80%, passing all four sections at once! So if you’re surfing the internet right now wondering who to go with….STOP….Solomon’s is the right choice for today’s professional to get the licensing you need done the first time, not the third!

I loved using Solomon Exam Prep. I used Solomon for 1 month and passed my Series 65 exam. I had previously used Kaplan and failed the same exam. I feel as if Solomon provided significantly better Exam prep and technology in a more concise manner than any other system I have used. Thank you for such a great service.

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)
