I recently took the SIE and used Solomon. While I passed, I felt the Solomon practice test questions were way off from the actual exam. I am about to start studying for the Series 79 Top-Off and Series 63 and was wondering what people though the best exam prep company is for these exams based on their experience.

Hi Matthew,
https://achievable.me/exams/finra-sie/overview/?utm_source=wso</a">Achievable is another test prep company in the FINRA space, but we only support the FINRA SIE and soon Series 7 (July 2020). I don't really have an agenda with this post (they're all nice people), but I'll tell you what I've heard:
Series 79 - I recommend Knopman. They specialize in the Series 79 and have a pretty strong reputation in the ibanking community.
Series 63 - I recommend STC. They have strong material on all tests and seem to handle the wealth management path of SIE -> 7 -> 63/65/66 well.
Best of luck!
Tyler
