A more recent update after taking my Series 7 exam: Within one year of joining the financial industry, Solomon materials have gotten me a 100%, 4 for 4 pass rate with the SIE, S6, 63 and S7 all completed within 10 months. Once again, the materials and practice tests prepared me for the S7 exam better than I could've imagined. I will continue to refer people to Solomon, as the material, customer service, and whole experience has been unmatched.

Solomon Exam Prep did it again! I passed the Series 63! Now, I'm 3 for 3 - SIE, S6 & S63 - all first try- thanks to the amazing study material! The practice exams are phenomenal!

Candace Chavez, Cetera Investment Services. Wimberley, TX.

I have now used Solomon for the SIE, series 6, and 63. I am ordering my 7 materials now. The structure and resources are right on target. The practice exams are more difficult than the exam which makes taking the exam much easier. I give all of the credit to Solomon for my 100% pass rate so far. I recommend Solomon to all of my coworkers.

Alex Coyne, Northwestern Mutual. Pensacola, FL

Well, I am back! Solomon did it again. I passed the Series 6. All of Solomons materials throughly prepared me for the passing of the SIE and the Series 6. Whose materials will I use for the Series 63? I am glad you asked. I must say it will be Solomon Exam Prep. Thanks again, Solomon your study materials are the best!

I have passed the Series 6, 63, and 26 on my first tries, all with the excellent training offered by Solomon. I'll never use another platform for my material.

I was struggling with my Series 6. I was referred to Steve Kaplan by a colleague. Steve told me to throw away my other study materials from the other school and use the Solomon Products. I found the information to be easier to understand. Along with Steve's test taking tips, I passed my Series 6 with no problem
