Series 66: 7.6 The Uniform Securities Act

Taken from our Series 66 Online Guide

7.6 The Uniform Securities Act

The Uniform Securities Act, or USA, was created to help states write their own securities laws. The USA is designed to be model legislation for use by all states in drafting their own state legislation regarding the regulatory requirements of investment advisers, broker-dealers, and issuers of securities. No matter what state you’re taking this exam in, the state securities laws you’re studying were built using the Uniform Securities Act as a template. The version of the act that you will be tested on is the Uniform Securities Act of 1956. Since the Uniform Securities Act ties together much of the legislative intent of all the laws created before it and may represent 25% to 30% or more of the entire exam, you need to memorize the details of this law as outlined in the next few chapters.

Passed the Series 66 on my first attempt. I thought the exam simulator was perfect. The material gave me the confidence I needed going into test day. I will only use Solomon for any other exams I take in the future. Thank you!

Brendan Halick, David White & Associates, Walnut Creek, CA

Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. Having the audio, video lectures (with the printable power-point!) and exam simulator in addition to the book really engages you in the material. It becomes a game! I passed the 66 with an 84%.

Colleen Shelly, PNC Investments, Cleveland, OH

I have been extremely happy with your book series. I was able to pass the Series 66 and Series 65 with flying colors on the first try! Thanks again.

Christian Brown, Financial Decisions Group

I found encouragement along the way from reading other people's testimonials, so payback is to write one of my own. Solomon is the gold standard for customer service. I passed the 66, SIE first tries -- received a 69% on the 7 (failed), but passed on the 2nd attempt. I'm in awe over the outreach I received from day 1 but especially from Jeremy on how to move forward after falling short on the Series 7 - followed his advice - one of which was to get the accompanying videos and passed. Watching/studying the Chapter 5 video had a big impact. I also printed the questions I got wrong that I particularly struggled with while taking the online exams, printed and/or turned them into flashcards, then taped many of them around the house. It forced me to constantly revisit the information and moved me past a superficial understanding. I'll take a messy-looking home for a short time than having to retake a 3 hour and 45 minute exam.

Brook Langston, Everspire. Salt Lake City, UT

I sat for the Series 66 on March 16th. I got an 85. I give all kudos to Solomon. The study materials were excellent.

William Crull, Metairie, LA

I passed the Series 66 with an 82 after just a few weeks of serious studying, thanks to the Solomon Exam Simulator and study calendar! I would (and do) recommend Solomon Exam Prep to everyone!
