How to Pass the Series 7 Exam for Financial Professionals


  1. Read the study material.  I recommend the Series 7 manual and practice exams from Securities Training Corp. at http://stcusa.com
  2. Plan to spend at least 20 hours a week for 4 to 6 weeks absorbing and understanding this material.  If devoting this much time is unappealing for you, you may want to reconsider a career in financial services.
  3. Take the practice exams.  Score 85% or better on the final, closed-book quizzes.  This should give you what Warren Buffett calls "a margin of safety" for passing the actual Series 7 test.

Best of luck! Gordon Mitchell Series 7 Tutor
