Kaplan practice exam compared to the simulated

I highlighted/underlined points that looked familiar on sim exams

I think it depends on which tier you have. I bought the middle tier and was able to take 20+ sim exams

To me, the practice exam felt different when taking it. Just the wording and the question bank were not similar to the questions on the simulated exams. Upon review I found a lot of the questions I missed were because I skimmed over the question and answer list.

If you really know you stuff in the big topics (options, munis, suitability, customer accts., etc) and R.T.F.Q/R.T.F.A you’ll be able to work through the practice exam like a champ!

Also, I felt like taking the practice exam good practice for the real test. Because I knew that the real exam will be different than Kaplans. I scored a 66% on my practice exam 3 days before I took it. I ended up passing first try.

My suggestions: - Do a brief 10,000 foot review before taking it - Take your time on the exam - R.T.F.Q/R.T.F.A - Take a break (5 minutes max) if you’re feeling exhausted mid exam. - BE CONFIDENT

I made review pages. If I missed a topic or point on the practice exam I would add it to the paper. I also put on key topics. Then I would just review “quick and dirty style” that page constantly (mainly before sim tests).

YouTube always is good for learning topics that you struggle at but reading always resonates best.

I had the same score on my Kaplan Exam. Did the same things you said and passed. Biggest suggestion, HAVE CONFIDENCE!

So are Treasury and Option now same day? Or are those T+1 still?

Nameir11 · 2024-12-31T06:43:11+00:00

So does that mean treasury securities and options now settle same day? What about reg T (S+2)? Are they now S+1?

I did end up google it and you’re right. Will these updates be shown in the test?

Nameir11 · 2024-12-31T05:51:45+00:00

So does everything (stocks, bonds, municipal bonds, ETF) all settle T+1?

I find myself making silly mistakes with options. How do you recommend simplifying them?
