I finally completed the hat trick yesterday.
Easier than the Kaplan practice/final tests. First 10 questions felt like series 7, 20 I had to guess and the rest I could identify the answer or reason on it. Here are some suggestions from others that helped me:
I read the book, I’m not good at memorizing everything. I would ask myself why is this important, or how would I use this? That was like a third of the exam. Deen, Ken and Brian have wonderful videos that explain why laws are in place.
Here are the most common topics that I found on the exam: Balance sheet, Analytical (Capm, discount method for bonds, preferred and common stock, Future/Presemt Value…), when a BD, Agent, IA or IAR needs to register (TestGeek has great notes on this that you can purchase), Administrator authority.
The last two days before the exam I took Ken‘s brutal exam and listened to Deen’s mighty 90. In fact, I listened to Deen’s mighty 90 video once a week just to remind myself of the main concepts of the exam. I hope this helps.
