We also take what you learn in the pages of this Series 7 exam study guide to a higher level by presenting you with well over 1,200 challenging questions in our test bank. However, our sample questions are not designed to merely trick you--which most people find discouraging and confusing at best. Rather, our Series 7 sample questions are designed to help you learn the information as you improve your ability to eliminate the incorrect answer choices you will see when taking the Series 7 exam. Be sure to keep a notebook filled with all that you learn from working the questions and reading the helpful explanations that follow. For an extra edge, try writing your own variations of our Series 7 practice questions in this same notebook, something our tutoring clients have found extremely helpful. Pass the 7(c) is your guide to a passing score on the Series 7 exam. This textbook is at the same time in-depth and easy to read. We don't skimp on the details found on the FINRA Series 7 outline. Rather, we skimp on the filler found in many of the more tedious Series 7 license exam manuals on the market.

FINRA's Series 24 exam is one of the most detailed tests people in your industry ever take. That's why a Series 24 textbook has to do more than copy-and-paste from regulatory websites or deliver endless bullet points for you to memorize. Anyone can list what you need to know. This is the only book that also shows you why you need to know it and how it all fits together. Only when you understand the key differences between underwriting and trading securities, for example, are you ready for the barrage of vocabulary terms your exam will try to use against you on these topics. We focus on you, the reader, and do what we can to make your study process as logical and understandable as possible. Our Plain English, reader-centered approach saves you time and frustration. To put it all together, though, be sure to work through our practice questions online. Only by applying what you learn in this textbook to the challenging practice questions will you be ready to schedule your exam. And, don't forget to take our "Go No Go" exams before picking a test date. However you approach this challenge, be sure to give yourself plenty of time and avoid cutting corners. There are no inessential pages in this textbook; there are no inessential practice questions in our ExamCram Online test bank. So, please, follow the study schedule. Read the textbook carefully and thoroughly. And then, plan on working with practice questions for at least two weeks. The Series 24 exam is not an easy test, but this textbook and other study materials make it as easy as possible. Let's jump into the first chapter and try not to let too many days go by between sessions. Okay? Outstanding. Let's get started
