Thank you so much and special thanks to the product you put out!! I did not know about Solomon a year ago when I took the Series 7 and I used another company's material. I did not pass the 7 first time and I was extremely nervous about the 66. However your product was wonderful and thanks to you guys I passed the 66 on my first try!!! Can't thank you enough!!!

Very excited to pass the Series 66! The Solomon practice exams were very helpful to understand the concepts and fundamentals of the questions. I would highly recommend Solomon Exam Prep for all FINRA exams. Make sure to have a good grasp on agent registration and suitability when taking the 66. Thank you Solomon!

I actually took the test (Series 66) in November and passed! I purchased the book and bought access to the online tests and found both invaluable. The book provided a good basis for knowledge, and taking the tests over and over gave me the logic of what the test writers were seeking.

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.

Jeremy and team, thank you for your excellent study materials and your availability to provide guidance and feedback as I was able to pass my Series 66 on the first try... The most telling confirmation your training materials are top notch... when I sat for my exam, once the test started and I read the first question, I instantly knew from my studies using the Solomon training, I was going to handle the test. Being able to sense this from the first question was more than comforting. Thank you again!

I passed the Series 66 today with an 85%. Your book and PDF test questions were great, and turned out to be the only study material I needed to pass the test on the first try. I'll look to you again when I need my Series 7. Thanks!
