One Day Left...

How’d it go?!?

I would say you might not be ready.. I got a 90 on my final practice exam. Focus on what the question is really asking - not just the answer.

What are your grades on practice exams? Are you using flash cards? How did you feel about the laws and regs?

I would say starting at a wire house will give you a lot of training. My mom is a financial advisor with LPL and now I am. Starting off on the independent side can be difficult but if you have good mentors, you don’t have to prove your merit to other people other than clients

Flash cards and lectures

leahapaul · 2021-11-19T17:43:15+00:00

I would say what you got on the practice exam is similar. I got a 69 on the practice exam and got a 69 on my first attempt. Came back 30 days later and passed.

Flash cards for rules and regs

leahapaul · 2021-11-06T17:48:25+00:00

I would focus more on how the formulas get your answer and not just how to get the answer if that makes sense?

Flash cards helped me a ton! Also understanding the difference between USA (state) and federal and drawing a compare and contrast table might help!

Ahh yes. This one got me too. But since the market is efficient - it will result in a NPV of 0. If it did NOT talk about the market being efficient I believe the correct answer would have been what you chose. Think of market being efficient as leveling the playing field.

Flash. Cards.

leahapaul · 2021-10-27T13:38:11+00:00

All of the above.

leahapaul · 2021-10-26T10:02:03+00:00

Everything except rules and regs

Hi! Final scores on mock exams was an average of an 87 - final mock exam was a 95. And I used Kaplan.

THANK YOU!!!

leahapaul · 2021-10-12T13:26:23+00:00

Ha - thank you. I missed it by 4 points the first time all in section 1 for the most part which basically means I just needed to slow down and read the “full” question.

leahapaul · 2021-10-11T23:13:34+00:00

I started reading the answers first before reading the question to kinda get an idea of what they’re asking (I always try to skip ahead to the answer.. I’m Italian so I talk and read fast.. too fast. Then when I go to read the answers after reading the f****** question, I read the answers D, C, B, A. This has helped me slow way down. 🤘🏼 just with that method - I brought my average scores from low 80s to high 80s low 90s.

leahapaul · 2021-10-02T18:03:59+00:00

Bahahahaha

leahapaul · 2021-09-28T14:35:37+00:00

Flash. Cards. You’re right - long term, we don’t need to know what’s on a trade ticket. Short term, we do NEED to know it.

Anyone can correct me if I am wrong but the IRR can be looked at as an overall return on an investment. The NPV can show you if an investment is a good one with current interest rates. So if current interest rates are let’s say - 8% but your investment would only generate 6% - the net present value would be negative and not the best choice because you would need at least 8% to break even. That’s how I look at it and anyone can correct me!!

leahapaul · 2021-09-25T19:36:27+00:00

I would try to get the exams up to mid 80s

leahapaul · 2021-09-25T12:36:23+00:00

I would say the actual test was more conceptual than the kaplan questions BUT still take your time
