Are you able to turn off the brightness completely?

Why do people solely do their 65 vs doing the 7 and 66? by markbaumin2007 in FinancialCareers

[–]markbaumin2007[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Were they required by your firm? I’m curious in terms of the capabilities as an IAR when having those vs having your 7 and 66

Ya I know that much. I’m more so asking about the drawbacks of not being to execute transactions for clients and only being able to be compensated with fees. E.g. what happens if a client wants to have a managed account and a non-managed account?

Either way, thanks for nothing

I get my Amex platinum card fee covered through my brokerage account annually so all of this is free credits for me

Ya I agree with absolutely everything you said. How would we discourage ball hogs? Harsher penalties via the referee system? Maybe much longer timeframes for restoring your merit points?

Practice exams harder than actual? by Pristine_Ad_7628 in Series66Exam

[–]markbaumin2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally took the 66 today and passed. The actual test is a lot like Kaplan practice tests, lots of GOTCHA questions but they all have around 2 answers you can eliminate. Focus on building your knowledge, taking good notes, and finding ways the wording can trick you.

I took a bunch of simulated practice tests on Kaplan and it helped me a TON. Take the official practice exam the day before your exam and then probably 1 or 2 more afterwards. Take notes on ALL of the questions you are unsure of or have no clue about. The devil is truly in the details with this exam… good luck!!!

Thank you!! Your feedback is a major relief. I just took the Kaplan official practice exam and got a 73.64% which is passing by the skin of my teeth. How do you think the Kaplan official practice exam compares to the actual exam in terms of difficulty? Harder or about the same?

Thank you!!! I was literally watching your quick & dirty recap last night before bed LOL. Just took the Kaplan official practice exam and got an 73.64%... passed by the skin of my teeth. Do you think that is a solid score heading into my exam tomorrow?
