TESTIMONIALS
What are people saying?
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 the Series 65 today. Thanks so much. The Series 65 Exam Simulator and the iPhone app were my only study instruments. I didn't have any other study materials. Granted, I know that you encouraged me to not use the exam simulator as my sole source, but I found your practice tests to be more difficult than the actual exam. I had taken the series 65 in 1994, but it is a different test now. I received an 89%, finished 55 minutes early. I just took your exam simulator tests over and over. Funny thing, I was getting in the 75% range on your exams. Never broke 80%. Great apps! I really appreciate your generosity in extending my subscription to complete my prep. You are a good man. Thank you.

I am so happy to say that took my Series 65 Exam and passed on my first attempt! All thanks must go to Solomon Exam Prep and its materials. I read the Study Guide cover to cover 3 times, took notes and took what felt like endless practice quizzes, but I must say that I found the practice questions more difficult than the actual exam! I cannot recommend Solomon Exam Prep enough!

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.

Awesome customer service and material. Will definitely be a returning customer

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!!!!!
