What topics are covered in an Omaha Series 7 class?
The Series 7 exam assesses you on the skills required by an entry-level registered representative to successfully perform their role as a general securities representative. Generally, that means the sale of corporate, investment company, government, and municipal securities, along with direct participation programs, variable annuities, and options.
There are 125 multiple-choice questions on the test, and you will have 3 hours and 45 minutes in which to answer them. You must score at least 72% in order to pass the Series 7 exam. Let's take a look at the specific sections of the test.
The main portion, a full 73% of the exam, is taken up by the core job tasks, which include providing customers information and making recommendations about investments as well as transferring assets, all while maintaining the necessary records. Another 11% of the test involves verifying information to complete and confirm transactions, 9% deals with evaluating customers' financial profile and objectives, and a final 7% of the exam has to do with seeking business for your brokerage firm from both current and potential new customers.
What are the advantages of taking an Omaha Series 7 prep course?
There are a number of benefits you can gain by enrolling in an Omaha Series 7 course. For one thing, if any of your study habits are rusty, you can gain insight on how to improve them. When you sign on to your virtual classroom, you have access to an expert instructor who has proven well qualified to teach the Series 7 exam to students just like you. Whether you're already working in the industry or just preparing to graduate from the University of Nebraska at Omaha or another area school, a professional instructor can help you become familiar with the content of the exam and with the format.
Standardized exams like the Series 7 have their own set of rules and standards. Above, we mentioned the number of questions and time limits, so obviously, time management during the test is important. In order to answer that many questions in that amount of time, you must be able to pace yourself fast enough to answer all questions, and yet not too fast to give up accuracy.
Your instructor may offer test-taking strategies that you wouldn't otherwise have known about, such as the idea of thinking in concepts, not questions. By learning the material back and forth, answering the questions on this test should come somewhat easier than if you had tried to memorize a bunch of terms. In addition, your instructor can make sure you're working from the most up-to-date study material, as certification exams like the Series 7 can be adjusted without your being aware, and you may or may not pull up the most recent study materials when you search for them online.
Working in a collaborative environment, such as that engendered by the Series 7 classes provided by Varsity Tutors, has been proven to help many students gain a deeper understanding of the material they're studying. This may be because there is more discussion and less rote memorization in a classroom setting than alone in your library cubicle or at your study desk at home. Whatever the reason, this is a useful advantage to have when the focus of the Series 7 is on concepts rather than simply memorizing disconnected bits of information.
How do I get enrolled in an Omaha Series 7 course?
Varsity Tutors does everything we can to make taking signing up for Series 7 exam preparation as easy as possible. New classes begin every month, and multiple sections offered each month. With classes scheduled at different times of the day and various days of the week and weekend, you're sure to find a solution that meets your study needs.
All you need to do to enroll in a course is contact Varsity Tutors, and our educational consultants can answer any questions you may have and get the information we need to enroll you in an Omaha Series 7 exam class that meets your specific requirements.
