Passed the 52 and 53 within two months thanks to the clarity of Solomon's materials. Great product!

Jonathan Bowman, Raymond James. Ennice, NC

I had previously used a competitors material while preparing for the Series 52 exam. Using that material I failed the exam twice and both times I felt unprepared even after studying a ton. I switched to Solomon after reading reviews that seemed to be similar to my scenario. I finally passed!! Solomon's material did a great job of simplifying really complex material. The practice exams were very similar to the real exam. While taking the exam for the third time after studying with Solomon I felt confident the entire exam because I knew the information and had seen questions formatted similar while taking practice exams. Thanks Solomon!!!

I used Solomon for the Series 52 after failing twice with Kaplan and STC. Solomon was immensely more helpful, simpler to understand, and more accurate than both companies combined. The practice questions were very similar to the ones I saw on the exam and the Ask the Professor feature was quick and helpful. I will be using Solomon for the Series 7 in a few months, and I recommend everyone who need to take a FINRA exam to use Solomon before anything else.

No other test prep service has questions so similar to the actual exam! Pairing practice questions in the exam simulator with the explanations in the book was definitely helpful in passing the Series 52!

Solomon adequately prepared me to pass the 52 on my first try. Also, the one time I used the Ask the Professor tool, I received a response promptly. The pre-built study timelines were fantastic, and the ability to access via computer and the iPhone App was crucial. Many thanks to Solomon. I will use you guys again.

I actually initially failed the Series 52 and was left frustrated with the previous exam prep course that I previously took. I took a look at many of your testimonials and thought I would take a chance on Solomon. I was not disappointed. I passed the Series 52 on the second go, and the test was a breeze due to the preparation of your Series 52 exam prep. I couldn't be happier with Solomon. Onward and upward!
