I haven't taken an exam in about 15 years and I'm happy to report that I passed the Series 50 Municipal Advisor exam on my first attempt. The material was extremely thorough and comprehensive. The online questions, quizzes and exams were very comparable in difficulty to the actual exam, thus providing the foundation for my success. Thank you for your guidance.

A special word of thanks to Carson for his encouragement and support.

I passed . Got an 84 on my Series 50. Solomon's prep material was pretty good. The practice tests were very helpful too. The numerical examples embedded within the theory really helped with the concepts. Made the material easy to read and understand.

I prepared for the Series 50 (Municipal Advisor) exam using your materials and was extremely satisfied. Having the materials in multiple written and audio formats provided a lot of flexibility in where and when I could study. The scope of the Series 50 exam is so broad that even very experienced individuals would benefit by this type of preparatory course. I highly recommend this product.

Five decades in the muni business didn't guarantee I'd pass the Series 50 pilot exam. (Just knowing content doesn’t mean you are ready for the test.) Thankfully, my Solomon Exam Prep materials were fantastic at teaching complex subject matter in a way that made the answers clear, and I passed the test with ease.

If you plan to take the Series 50 exam, then I strongly recommend that you give yourself the edge that Solomon's study materials provide.

Jeremy and Tim were extremely helpful in helping me get through some of the tricky parts of the Series 50 exam. Your customer service was top notch and I would highly recommend Solomon to anyone sitting for this test.
