I'm an auditory learner. Ordering the audio files was most helpful and I passed today with no worries.

At Phillips & Co., my job was to hire entry level applicants
who could successfully pass the Series 65 and Series 7 examinations in three
months and do it the FIRST TIME. After trying Kaplan/Dearborn, STC, and even
the Series 7 for Dummies, 85% of our applicants were still having a hard time
passing.
One day while expressing my frustration to a
colleague, he recommended I look up First Books' Exam Prep. I could tell
immediately that this was a unique approach worth the investment. Since we
implemented Exam Prep with new recruits our pass rate shot up to well over 90%.
If you or your employees want to pass your
exam the first time without falling asleep while studying, I highly recommend
you give their training program a try!

I passed my Series 65 today with an 80, first effort! Not only was the material well laid out, but if it's possible, the Solomon prep made the material palatable and understandable. Amazing!!! I have used Kaplan in the past as well as STC, which are both very good, but I chose Solomon because it had audio downloads. With an hour commute, I was able to study during that otherwise wasted time. Additionally, the "Ask the Professor" and live chat features were excellent!! Questions were answered virtually immediately by personal email and the author/owner Jeremy Solomon actually called me to help me and cheer me on! I didn't think this kind of customer service and general human kindness existed anymore. He even asked me to let him know personally my results which, thanks to this program, I am on the other side of this very difficult exam. Thank you Solomon Exam Prep!!!!!

I have used other providers in the past for the 62 and
decided to try something new this time due to passing that by a thin margin out
of luck. I passed the 65 first try with
an 88% all thanks to Solomon Exam Prep and its effective 5-week program. The book is thorough and easy to follow and
the endless question bank with detailed explanations ensures that you will
never see a repeat and never have to worry about question memorization (which
is CRITICAL when you are assessing how ready you are based off of practice
tests). The quizzes and exams require a
deeper level of understanding, unlike other providers that test you with
elementary questions only to leave the actual exam to feel unpleasantly
difficult. The practice quizzes provide
a very convenient way to focus on your weak areas and the full simulation exams
feel very much like the actual test and in my experience, made the real exam
seem surprisingly easy. The practice
questions also reinforce important test taking skills and taught me to approach
questions in a more disciplined way than before. Finally, I gave the “ask the professor”
function a try and they are VERY responsive and clearly have a passion for
seeing their clients succeed. I couldn’t
be happier with this program and even though you might hear about the other
test prep companies more often, Solomon IS the most effective.

I did so many
practice exams with Solomon and never saw one question twice. The quality of
study material is thorough, with a touch of humor, and gives it to you in many
formats (visual both on the computer or in book format if you wish), as well as
audio that you can listen to in the car, as well as the benefit of videos of
actual lectures from professors. I felt as though getting the information in
all those formats allowed me to really grasp the information using different
senses and facilitated the learning process even further.

Thank you Solomon! I passed the Series 65 today on the 1st attempt. Same result as on the Series 63 I passed last year. The Solomon video lectures and exam simulator was awesome. It not only helped pass the test but helped me really understand all the material.
