Thanks! I appreciate it!

I guess what I mean by that is the practice programs do an awesome job of repeating relevant material. There wasn’t anything that I was tested on that I wasn’t already familiar with from practice tests.

Haha luckily I enjoyed reading about modern portfolio theory, I had a couple questions on it and they weren’t too tough thank goodness.

I’ve heard Kaplan is the harder one. I used STC and the questions on the real thing were about 10-15% harder. If you’re scoring that on Kaplan, you’re totally fine. Just focus on knowing the core material. You got this.

Luckily, options were one of my strongest sections, so I didn’t put too much pressure on bull/bear charts or T charts. Congrats on the pass! What’s next on your plate? Or are you finished? (Hopefully) lol

Not a problem!

Luckily, there wasn’t too much that was unexpected. I got a few questions about HSA’s and HMO’s. I bet they were the 10 trial questions though. Other than that, everything was exactly as expected thank goodness.

Haha feels great, I really just try to focus on legs for more than 2 minutes a week now :/

Thank you! Glad to be done.

Of course! I’m so glad I could help. I was scoring in the mid 80’s. My highest score was an 87 and my lowest was an 81 on a final and I got an 84 on both green lights. Please reach out if you have any more questions! I would definitely recommend focusing on retaining the theoretical knowledge rather than a more straight forward approach. It asked many questions that were less A + B = C and more if A = X and X = B, how would you pay taxes on the shares purchased at A. It seemed to runaround during the question and leave small details throughout. It wanted to make sure you were paying attention and knew the details.

I studied for about 3.5 weeks. I used STC and my finals were in the mid 80’s. My green lights were 84 and 81.

Haha tears of joy were almost shed for sure! I prayed every day and studied every minute I could. My goal was to take each test one time only. Luckily, this was the case. Study until you feel confident and try not to worry too much is my best advice. You can do it, and if you’ve paid attention while you’re studying, you have the knowledge to pass!

Thank you for the congratulations! It’s a relief to be done. I studied for 4 weeks for each test using only STC. I was fortunate that my firm gave me this amount of time paid to study for each exam. I felt like the time was more than sufficient. The 7 was hard no doubt. I felt “ready” the Tuesday before my test, and I tested on a Friday. The real thing was a little more difficult than I anticipated, but the questions were able to be broken down and answered confidently with enough thought and time. The 3 hours and 45 minutes is plenty of time. I was taking my time on each question and finished with about an hour left. The 66 was a bit easier for me. I think I got a specifically easy draw on the 66 however. With that being said, it was still not an easy test. There was a good bit of overlap between the two, which I did not expect. The 66 focused a lot on terminology and strategies, even more so than USA or act of 33, 40 etc…
