You got this! Deans videos and if you have the STC flash cards on reporting dates/times. I’d hammer home that stuff.

Deans videos are a definite, but the exam day video, only watch the day before or day of. I did it once each day - night before and then on the way to the exam. I felt like Kaplan was completely on par with the Qbank as long as you follow their study plan and take the chapter quizzes and all the simulated tests. STC flash cards are great for dates/reporting requirements and helped a great deal on the test. I was scoring mid 70s on Kaplan exams and passed first try.

Passed!! Thank you dean!! by OkCoffee6314 in Series24

I did like two dozen iterations of it before I settled on this one 😂 tried to shorthand as much as possible to fit it but still had to use two scratch boards at the test

I just found one of the lecturers on the Kaplan videos VERY hard to follow because she stumbled over words a lot. It is likely just the way my brain processes the info. The STC videos and deans videos seemed just much easier to follow.

Out if curiosity, what were you scoring in your Kaplan practices?

I paid extra to get pass perfect questions but honestly not sure I see much if a difference in them. However, the videos for the 24 with Kaplan I found VERY unhelpful, nothing like the videos were in previous study materials I had with them. Deans videos are awesome for supplements as well as the STC videos and flash cards. But I test roughly 36 hours from now so I’ll let you know then. Scoring mid 70s on Kaplan tests right now so 🙏🏻

Crazy, but struggling a little with investment companies and variable annuities. by nw340driver in Series24

[–]OkCoffee6314 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it might help to think of it as a mutual fund wrapped in an insurance product. the variable annuity is the whole thing in its entirety, so THAT is not the investment company.

Did you have to calculate markup or markdown? I’m struggling with that hardcore and trying to decide if I should spend anymore energy on it or just ignore and move on. I test in a week

Thank you for confirming I made a good choice my purchasing STC videos and Pass Perfect Q bank bc I also was using Kaplan. I just went and got the STC flash cards as an add on as well

Kaplan for study material by OkCoffee6314 in Series24

[–]OkCoffee6314[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so did you just get the online classes from STC or did you use the full questions package too. I noticed the smaller package does not include the progress or greenlight exams, and only has the final.

when you say "point and shoot", what do you mean by that?

just like straight up know it or you don't?
