What content will an Indianapolis SIE class cover?
The SIE is a test that is designed for prospective securities industries professionals. It is often viewed as the first step towards becoming a licensed securities professional. This is because individuals who pass this exam become qualified to take an additional qualification exam that is relevant to the specific part of the securities industry that they wish to start their career in. For example, after passing the SIE, you may go on to take the Series 7, Series 22, Series 52, or another qualification test.
The exam includes questions about concepts that are fundamental to working in the securities industry. This includes types of products and their risks, the structure of the securities market, prohibited practices, and regulatory agencies and their functions. The test is given in a multiple-choice format. Those who take it will have a maximum of one hour and forty-five minutes to answer the exam's 75 questions. In order to pass the test, you'll need to earn a score of at least 70 percent.
What are the benefits of taking an Indianapolis SIE course?
When you sign up for an Indianapolis SIE prep course, you'll get a chance to review the most important content on your upcoming exam.
