For those who have taken the series 6, 7, 63, 65, or 66

If you have taken any one of these exams, which did you personally find the most difficult to pass and how extensive was the studying? I am an Account Executive within software sales (fancy term for a traveling software salesman) which has been great for me so far, I passed up the job offered by my internship for this job because I get to work from home, get paid more and get to travel, but always beefing up a resume and having something to fall back on/separate option makes me feel comfort.

I graduated from a top 20 public university with a BA in Economics with honors, I interned with a BB bank on Wall Street during my time in college (graduated 2017).

I have knowledge in the field which is good as in I am not starting from scratch, I know none of these exams are "easy", but I have intentions on taking most if not all.

Any help on filling me in on my ignorance of the subject would be greatly appreciated as well.
