I passed my 27 and I can't thank you enough for the preparation materials, most importantly the Final Exams. I studied for weeks for this test and buckled down the last two weeks of 6 hour study days. It's a great feeling and I couldn't have done it without you!!!

Last August 2020 I passed the Series 28 on the first try using your materials. I just wanted to drop in and let you know I passed the Series 27 exam today!! I am so happy today as I took the test in Jan of this year and missed it by 3 points. I switched up my focus and really zoned in the most heavily weighted chapters. This is by far the hardest exam I have taken. Thank you Solomon for your excellent study materials. I'll be back when I pass the next one ;)

I PASSED. A big thank you to Solomon Exam Prep for breaking down the material for the Series 65 exam into understandable information. I started my exam prep journey with another provider and their material was simply too wordy and full of unnecessary information. I switched to Solomon Exam Prep and the material was easy to follow and I PASSED. Thanks so much for being there for me.

Used Solomon for my second & third time. First time I used a different company & day of test, I had no idea what I was reading. Second time, I bought Solomon a little too close to my test date, failed but had a higher score. Third Time, used strictly Solomon & passed! Cant thank Solomon enough, will recommend to everyone!

I am still so giddy that I passed my Series 7 on 1/31. I truly cannot believe it. I took the 7 three times in 2019 utilizing Kaplan study materials and didn't feel good going into the tests any of the times. So shockingly I failed all three times by a lot. My highest score was a 68%. I used Solomon for my 51 in September (passed on the first try) so I thought I could try it for my 7 even though it is the hardest securities test I have taken. I felt so good going into the testing center and I passed!!! I am so grateful to have found your materials. They have been incredibly helpful and I am able to understand all the material covered in the books. I still am in shock that I passed. Now off to the 24!

I have passed the SIE, Series 63, and Series 65 all on the 1st attempt. Thank you Solomon Exam Prep! The practice tests are great and really prepare you for the real exam.
