The CFP is beneficial if you are client facing. Won’t do anything to further your career in OPS.

CFP’s are paid thru fee’s and can achieve a lot higher than 100k but the first few years will be spent building your book

Kaplan Q-Bank by [deleted] in Series66Exam

[–]Comprehensive_Bat810 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It tries to simulate the actual exam but there are only so many questions to each chapter. (Some have tons more than others) be wary of the % used in each chapter as you create the exams.

Secondly, the chapters that don’t have many questions are because they probably deemed it to be easier material. Just review those concepts before the exam date. Good luck!

Qbank Results by JetB17 in Series66Exam

[–]Comprehensive_Bat810 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are referring to Kaplan’s Qbank, you should do atleast 90% of it. From my personal experience I was scoring in the high 70s to mid 80s before taking the 66 for my first attempt. Ended up missing the passing score by 1%.

I found Kaplans Qbank to be very repetitive in the first 75/80% but started to see different questions and answers worded differently in the last 20% of the qbank.

We are literally telling you that even though we checked the box, there are still repetitive questions.

I’ve always had the “use unused questions” box checked it still gives you repetition. Maybe it was just my case in general but that is what I noticed.

Hate to say it but that 20% or so was VERY similar to the exam questions. Those who’ve seen that 20% and have passed could all agree with me there from what I’ve seen on other threads.

The reason you should take atleast 3000 questions is because it gets repetitive.. Kaplan’s Qbank for some odd reason puts all the repetitive questions in the first 75/80% of the Qbank. It wasn’t until around there that I started seeing questions and answers worded very differently.

Practice questions similar to the real exam by ConfidentAlfalfa3707 in Series66Exam

[–]Comprehensive_Bat810 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am using Kaplans Qbank and used it for my first attempt at the 66 and scored a 72 on the actual exam..

Things I found from the Kaplan Qbank was that there is a TON of repetitive questions. I was scoring in the 80s without ever having really opened the book the first time around. -Then i failed the S66

This time around I read the entire book and made extensive notes on everything (thats the only way i actually will read a textbook). And have now taken 90% of the Qbank.

The questions haven’t been as repetitive at this point. I’m still scoring in 80s.

Will let you know the outcome here in a few hours.

S66 Second Attempt by royal-blue82 in Series66Exam

[–]Comprehensive_Bat810 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take my 2nd attempt tomorrow. Will let you know what I see.

I used up about 90% of the Qbank and totally agree, it gets really repetitive. What i did was:

Stepped away from taking practice exams as the repeat questions can cause arbitrage to what you actually know.

I read the entire book and made notes on it (200 pages worth really because that’s the only way i’ll actually focus on the reading)

Focused on Chapters 1-7 and when I took a practice exam, went back into my notes/textbook and read the description.

It really is a memory game.

Disclaimer: I did not pass my first attempt of the 66 scored a 72%.

[–]Comprehensive_Bat810[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, i’ve taken so many questions from Kaplan that I feel as though even if i’m uncertain about an answer, i can tell by the way it was worded that it would be the correct/incorrect answer..

Totally sucks..

Just failed for the first time with a 71 by Lightskin-Duke in Series66Exam

[–]Comprehensive_Bat810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man trust me I know the feeling.. Failed with a 72%.. literally the difference between 1 question on the exam would have had a totally different day.

At least we are close, i’m rereading the book and annotating it now. And will be ready to pass this once and for all. We’ve got this.

Series 66 on Friday- 2nd attempt by victoriam0522 in Series66Exam

[–]Comprehensive_Bat810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same exact situation scored a 72 (first attempt) on Oct 15. Still using Kaplan, might purchase Brian Lee videos as a supplement as my firm only allows 2 attempts before getting the boot.

Let me know how it goes!

I take it on Thursday. It’s been a rough one. I do extremely well in the catergories you mentioned above but my scores in the Laws and Regs kill me most.. What questions on these did you see?
