series exam

Hello,

Has anyone tried the STC flash cards and did that help? Also, should we start studying for these exams right now? Any words of wisdom of what to do right now in preparing for the exams.

i have my series "training" for a couple of weeks right before we start work. so do they expect us to study for 2 weeks and take the exam? or continue to study while working? ugh i'm confused

 

i studied for 10 days and was able to score an 84. If you took finance in college you can skip a few chapters. The rest is straight up memorization. When you have time, start reviewing the non-cramming material so you can put that to rest. During that last week, cram as much as possible and take all the practice exams. I would suggest going one-by-one over the questions and learning why you missed the questions you did.
