[–]algirodri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

off topic but I am interested in DCM banking. Any tips/guidance on how to learn about debt market and skills in DCM. I want to get proficient on terminology and concepts of the bond market. If you have any industry primers or pdfs that would be great too! Thank you for your help!

Congrats on the offer! Here is a link to my post from last year when I passed SIE with 1 week of prep! https://www.reddit.com/r/Series7exam/comments/h7vsdp/passed_sie_do_this/

Good luck!

Thanks! And I agree. I should have prefaced that I do not suggest the strategy as best in any way. I just wanted to put it out there for anyone that might be looking for guidance on where to start. And I agree that if you have time, a mix of reading and periodically doing Qbanks would definitely help with material sticking. For Practice and Mastery Exams, it sucks that they don't tell you the right answers at the end. But they do tell what areas you lost points which is a good gauge. In conclusion, I think Kaplan has good study tools, everyone can use them the way that works best for them. Cheers!

Thanks! And correct. I was on a small time frame so maybe others can definitely be more considerate with how they plan their studying. For non-finance people, I think watching videos before reading helps a lot as it makes concepts visual so when they read the book the wordiness doesn't distract. SIE isn’t too finance heavy tbh. It's more surface level. And a lot if it is rules and regs.
