Varsity Tutors can help you connect with a private Omaha SIE tutor or start an online course that can help you get one step closer to working in the securities profession. The SIE will cover material that you learned throughout school whether you attended Creighton University, the University of Nebraska at Omaha, or another degree program. It can be a useful practice to review the material, especially the content that you haven't discussed in some time. Whether you prefer to take an online Omaha SIE prep course or get the help of a private SIE tutor, you can receive a more in-depth review than you may be able to accomplish on your own.
What material will be covered during Omaha SIE prep?
The Securities Industry Essentials or SIE is a multiple choice exam with 75 questions. The questions must be answered within the 1 hour and 45-minute time limit. To pass, you must earn at least 70% on the exam. However, passing the essentials exam alone does not qualify you to engage in the securities business. You will also need to pass an individual test for the type of business you will engage in such as the Series 7 or Series 52. The SIE will cover numerous topics such as hedge funds, offerings, types of markets, and much more. During your Omaha SIE prep, your instructor or private mentor will cover these topics with you and many more.
Additionally, your instructor can cover not only the content but the format of the exam as well. You will be learning from a certified professional who has knowledge of both. You may also learn tips and techniques to complete the exam on time because of the strict time limit. Also, your Omaha SIE prep instructor can help you maximize your chances of answering questions you are hung up on correctly. For example, they may teach you to look for clues such as "not" or "if" being in the question to help you eliminate the answers that are obviously incorrect.
What are some benefits of the different types of SIE prep?
Varsity Tutors can help you get set up with two types of prep; online, courses, or private instruction. You may find that you prefer one method over the other, or you may decide to do both so you can get the most out of your study time. Each option has its unique advantages, but it doesn't matter which one you choose, you will be learning accurate information from an instructor you can trust. Next, we will discuss the perks of each kind of Omaha SIE prep.
For those who enjoy working in a setting that mimics the traditional classroom, there is an online SIE prep class. If you enroll in a class, you will attend virtually. You will be able to see and interact with your peers and teacher as if they were right there with you. For added support, there is video chat and a digital whiteboard in the Live Learning Platform that is unique to Varsity Tutors. You will also get to work in group settings, meaning you can learn the material from the perspective of others.
Additionally, if your peers are struggling with a particular topic that you know about, you can help them while also getting a refresher on the material as you do. During class, you can also ask your questions and get immediate feedback from your instructor. If you do find that you need additional help, you can always reach out to your instructor to schedule a one-on-one meeting.
If the one-on-one learning environment is more up your alley, we can help you connect with an Omaha SIE tutor. When you work with a private instructor, you can spend time how you want to. Your private SIE instructor can customize lesson plans to meet your needs. For instance, if you struggle with hedge funds, they can create a lesson plan that breaks them down for you. You can work at your own pace during each session because it's just you and your mentor. So, if you are struggling with debt instruments, you can spend as much time on them as you need until you feel comfortable.
How can I get started with Omaha SIE preparation?
Whether you choose to go with private tutoring or a group class, you will be working with a skilled professional who is qualified in the format and content of the SIE. If you are wondering how Omaha SIE prep can help you, call Varsity Tutors today.
