Series 65: Backing Away

Taken from our Series 65 Online Guide

Backing Away

A related violation is when a broker-dealer offers to buy or sell a security at a particular price with no intention of actually buying or selling the security at that price. For example, if a broker-dealer gives a quote of $30.25 – $30.50, they need to be willing to buy the security at $30.25 and sell it at $30.50. Not honoring quotes is called backing away.

My third exam passed with Solomon, first the Series 6 and the Series 63, this time the Series 65 - just passed today! Highly recommend for any exam prep you need! Thank you again guys!

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 73 years old and have been retired for 5 years. My fulfilling career of 38 years was mainly as a portfolio manager in a trust setting. A good friend of mine recently started an RIA and asked me to consider coming to work for him. Since I loved my job and retirement is boring in comparison, the decision to jump back in was rather easy. You know the old saying: if you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life. But yes, I must first pass Series 65. The study materials and whole program you have constructed are excellent. I read the phone-book sized reading materials and took many practice exams on the website. Just this morning I sat for the test and passed. Hooray!! I am convinced that your test preparation process made the exam seem easy. So I will recommend to anyone preparing for a securities exam to definitely consider getting your program. Thanks again for your outstanding program and guidance."

Very good material and well planned to help you pass the first time (Series 65). The audio tape structure is easy to listen to along with the reading material. Clear and to the point. Nothing dry about your material. Thank you. Highly recommend.

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 thought the study material from Solomon Exam Prep was great. It helped me focus on the sections where I needed to study the most. I passed with an 81% on my first try for the Series 65 exam. I would definitely use Solomon Exam Prep again if I need to get any more licenses.
