Make a call to Varsity Tutors if you want to get started with a professional Albany Series 7 exam course. You must take and pass the Series 7 exam to get your stockbroker license in the United States. You must have first passed the SIE (Securities Industry Essentials) exam to take the Series 7 exam. Regardless of whether you studied at the College of Saint Rose, the University of Albany, or another university in the area, taking an Albany Series 7 exam prep course can help you prepare for this important test.
What should I study when preparing for the Series 7 exam?
The Series 7 exam is designed to test the capabilities of prospective general securities representatives. Such a job would include selling corporate securities, government securities, variable annuities, direct participation programs, etc.
The bulk of the Series 7 exam will focus on skills involved in interacting with clients. This includes transferring assets, recording information, recommending investment opportunities, and providing information about investments. Other skills required for the test include confirming transactions, verifying client agreements, obtaining information about a client's financial profile and goals, opening accounts, and seeking out business from clients. You will have three hours and 45 minutes to complete the 125 questions on the Series 7 exam.
What can I get out of taking an Albany Series 7 exam class?
Studying in a virtual class can save you time and money. Our classes take place over the internet in our virtual classrooms. You will be able to engage with your instructor and the other students through video chat. Interactions will take place in real time, and you can feel as if you were sitting in the same room together. At the same time, you will not have to spend any time or money on transportation.
Taking an Albany Series 7 exam class can develop your critical thinking skills. The teacher can ask questions that force you to think quickly. Learning from the teacher can also help you develop your listening skills.
When taking an Albany Series 7 class, you can review all that you learned in your school classes. You may find that there are holes in your knowledge. You might have missed something that was discussed in class, or you may have misunderstood a certain concept, such as arbitrage. Taking a comprehensive Series 7 course will give you the opportunity to relearn everything you need to know for the exam.
Being able to learn with like-minded students is another benefit of attending an online Series 7 class. Your fellow students, like you, will also be aspiring stockbrokers who want to prepare for the Series 7 exam. You can motivate each other and help keep each other focused on your purpose. You can also exchange ideas, share different perspectives, and help each other understand difficult concepts.
Besides learning the information that will be covered on the test, you also need to learn how to take a test that has a time limit. Your teacher can cover this during class. For example, they can give you advice on how to pace yourself so that you do not spend too much time on a single question. Instead, you can take your best guess, mark down the question, continue on to other questions, and come back to the marked questions if you have time left over at the end of the exam. The teacher can even administer practice tests that mimic the time limits you will face on the actual exam.
You can also ask for private time with your class instructor if you feel that you have not understood certain topics, such as the rights of common stockholders or ETFs. You can review these topics, delve deeper into them, clear up misunderstandings, and ask questions.
