Thank you so much for your great study materials! I have used Kaplan in the past and this is so much better! I used your study materials to get an 84% on my Series 7 and an 85% on my Series 66! Keep up the good work!

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 purchased Solomon Exam Prep to get a leg up on the S66 exam. I had taken it a few times already missing it by 1-2 points. A friend of mine enrolled on the test site and passed it on the first try. We did share notes while she was studying. It was then I realized Solomon has something the other test prep companies did not have, which helped me get over the hump. I will recommend it to anyone who really want to pass it the first time up!

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!

So, on this exam [Series 66] I used both your material and Kaplan. mainly because the bank had already paid for kaplan and I had grown accustom to your laid back writing style along with a great mp3 version of the book. Anyway, I got a fair amount of questions from both the kaplan material and your material before taking the test. I have to say that your material matched more closely to the test than I ever would have expected. I will be coming back to Solomon exam prep for ALL of my exam prep needs. :-) Thanks!

I love Solomon Exam Prep! The materials are comprehensive and simulate the type of questions on the tests. And the staff is so committed to their students' success. Without them, I wouldn't have been able to pass both the 7 and the 66.
