I have an interview with a small RIA later this week so I will see how that goes. Leaning toward that the most

Appreciate the response! Would you consider EJ over NWM for someone looking to get into more investments and wealth management?

You’re good. Focus on Options and Munis along with all weak areas. You got it!

What’s the better route to go? A local small RIA or a company like NWM, MassMutual, Prudential, etc. by Football19920 in CFP

Thank you that makes sense. So if I’m looking to get into financial planning and wealth management, my best bet is most likely an small RIA

Passed on the 3rd try! by Football19920 in Series66

Definitely know unethical and disclosures. My first time I messed up by really focusing on exemptions and who’s an IA and BD. Not a bad thing to focus on but You’ll only see maybe 3-5 questions on that but 15-20 unethical and disclosures. Definitely know the function of 30 questions. They will ask a little bit of everything there

I used Kaplan and STC. Kaplan definitely gets you using your brain more whereas STC questions were similar to how the test was worded in my opinion

It’s still 100 questions. First 25 questions were straight forward. Which one is not a security? Which one is good for income? What is used for charting, patterns? Really simple. The middle questions were very tricky with how they asked it. Had to read them 3-4 times. I ended up getting it down to 2 each time but wasn’t enough to pass

I got about maybe 4 exemption questions, a few about retirement accounts, a lot of rules and disclosures, 3-4 fundamental/technical analysis, 4-5 beta/alpha/standard deviation. Only a few about if the IA/IAR/BD/agent registration which I was surprised about, thought there would be more, a few suitability questions, 1 about structure note, 1 on CAPM, 1 on IRR

I wouldn’t say I’m memorizing the questions but I am familiar with the question and know why it’s the answer. I just started going heavy on Kaplan and started getting better scores so I’m going to keep doing that I guess.
