After filing U4 but before taking 79/63, am I still able to work?

I'm at a small firm and don't have my licenses yet but they already have me working. I have the materials and am studying for the 79 and 63, and will soon be submitting my U4. Am I permitted to work while I'm studying to take the exam?

I'm pretty sure I am but can't find any information online about how this part of the process works. Thanks!

not sure about these specific licenses. But allot of the time you can do allot of the "side work" of whatever the job function is. A financial adviser is what I'm thinking of in this example.

Why get your own coffee when you can get an intern to do it for you?
