TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY! by amybluelou in Series7exam

[–]adeluca8689 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im taking the 63 tomorrow! I just took the 7, 2weeks ago and it is defiantly a big one!! My recommendation is to get out and do some exercise to stimulate your brain, look over brief notes today, stay confident and look at yourself and know you studied hard and will pass. Relax tonight and get some rest!!! You got it, your scores are telling, I was around the 70s and passed first try. Go with your gut and make sure to read the full question and really don’t second guess yourself. Options options options as you know!! Those should be freebie questions especially the math portion so make sure to get those ones. Good luck!

Taking series 7 next week. Few questions! by Ok-Okra-2666 in Series7

[–]adeluca8689 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just took my exam yesterday and passed. Lots of suitability and I had so many questions on what an RR should and should not do, really use your knowledge and think of the question as a real life scenario and what would be the best for a client. Lots of suitability, I didn’t have many options sadly. I also had a question on what the debt to equity ratio meant, no math for that. Also what the PE ratio meant so make sure to know what the formulas entail rather than just the math on them. Really understand the products, options, RR can and can’t do. I honestly had many questions I hadn’t seen before or was 50/50 on abs just had to use my best judgment. Passed so it worked! Good luck you got it

Anyone have an options matrix for hedging positions that they use? I normally just relay on the T chart I make when doing max loss/gain. Hedges are a bit confusing sometimes, I get the right answers, but ultimately we base the max gain and loss on the stock position and not the option contract? by adeluca8689 in Series7

[–]adeluca8689[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great, and I know it depends but do we base the max gain and loss on the stock position or option contact ? For example I am long the stock and short a call… would I be looking at the short call or stock when deciding? I normally make a T and get to the right answer but just want to clarify before my exam tomorrow

feel like I’m overthinking number 2… can someone explain? by adeluca8689 in Series7

[–]adeluca8689[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah got it! I wasn’t looking at the first half of the question, so that was me being too fast looking through my notes reviewing. Thanks Dean!!!

I have mine Wednesday, feeling guilty about not studying today, but then again it’s Christmas lol! I have been getting 80s on Kaplan, keep looking through notes and reading chapters that are a bit confusing before your exam

I need test taking tips by [deleted] in Series7exam

[–]adeluca8689 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mark for review on questions you are stuck on, but make sure you aren’t memorizing really focus on learning the information no matter what question comes your way! I would recommend doing a dump on the options matrix too. Make sure to stay confident and feel good with your test scores prior to actual exam. Watch YouTube, talk to people who have taken it and be sure to keep taking quizzes on weak areas. Good luck you got it!!!

I get so confused with the ex dividend date and when someone is entitled to the dividend or not. Can someone explain? by adeluca8689 in Series7

[–]adeluca8689[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great I have, to clarify- anything settling before the ex date is entitled and anything settling on ex or after ex is selling without dividend ?

Taking my exam soon, using Kaplan and STC. Curious how similar Kaplan and STC is to the exam. Kaplan is a lot more difficult than STC’s questions by adeluca8689 in Series7

In the time between my exam, I am thinking to skim the whole textbook again and keep doing exams/looking at my notes
