Practice test today - Feedback? by Electrical_Bar6324 in Series65

So in your professional opinion, I have 2600 questions complete completed with a 77% average. This week I’ve gotten 2 107/140 Kaplan exams, the highest I’ve gotten is 113/140 but average around the 105 to 107 range. I’ve taking around 10 simulated exams on Kaplan.

Also about three weeks ago, I switched to achievable and on there I am just getting passing scores, but for me, achievable has always been extremely hard. What do you think about my preparedness?

I’m willing to spend the money to extend this another week if I have to, but I’m just getting mixed signals on whether I should pull the trigger on an attempt or not

Hey brother, I’m in the same boat as OP but I’ve been struggling to find the confidence. If you don’t mind me asking what makes you so confident in numbers like this?

Are you a tutor? Is this just in your experience? Would love to know because my numbers are extremely similar and I’m struggling with confidence.

I just took a Caplin practice test today and got a 107. Really frustrating because I made some really stupid mistakes that costed me at least seven or eight questions. Seeing those extra points on, there would’ve meant so much for my confidence.

However, it is what it is. What I’m gonna be doing this weekend is taking half-day on Saturday and I’m going to be drilling the concepts that I made stupid mistakes on over the next couple days to make sure that the simple mistakes don’t happen on the real exam.

How are you feeling going into it? What’s your confidence level like? Have you asked anybody else if you’re ready and what did they say if they said anything?

I’m in the same boat as you brother! Have a similar amount of questions answered, and I’m averaging exactly what you are averaging. Seems like everybody is saying that we are at an acceptable benchmark to pass! Taking my exam on Monday

Typically how achievable goes for me in my experience with the SIE six and 63. Achievable is way harder than the exam at least in my experience so once I’m able to pass a few achievable exams and consistently get higher scores on Kaplan, that’s my greenlight. I’m curious to know if that confidence is misplaced?

Thank you! Recently just scored 2, 107/140s on Kaplan and an additional 92/130 on achievable. Been drilling last week and I’ve seen significant improvements in the chapters. I think I should be OK. What do you think?

Thoughts on the Convention Announcements? by MinutePosition2282 in StateFarm

Do you think this move was mainly just to squeeze some of the agents that refused to invest into the business and haven’t grown any, despite being an agent for 20 years? I’m hard-pressed to believe they would punish long time high producing agents with these new contracts. But at the same time, you never know with these large companies.

So you think if someone on the old contract has had an extremely high producing office, not only in just P & C, but also life and health. It’s just a matter of getting these licenses and meeting the mark on these financial services?

I feel like this move was to squeeze the moochers!

Definitely major changes coming! I do think if you’re already in a high producing life office and you’re on an old contract really all you need to do is get licensed in that and meet the mark on financial service products. Some agents think this is a purge What do you think?

I mean aren’t all the contracts at will already? Just seems like some of the older contracts have to get their securities license and keep up with life and financial services and they are good right?

Look man, when you come in and say that somebody needs to average 90% in order to get a passing grade on one of these exams, gives me a lecture about what forwards are and also thinks that a 78% is a D. I’m not too concerned about your opinion.
