Are you looking for a job that can lead to wealth and success? Do you find satisfaction in helping people? Are you comfortable with mathematical calculations? If so, a career as a stockbroker is likely to be very rewarding for you.

By now, I’m sure you’re aware of the hurdle that stands between you and your riches: the Series 7 exam. So in this part, I review the computerized exam format and the procedures for registering to take the exam, and I uncover the topics tested on the Series 7. I help you select the right study course and materials to prepare yourself for exam day, and I explain how to organize your study time efficiently and effectively — even when your time is limited. I also give you test-taking tips to maximize your chances of selecting the correct answer choices. Finally, I let you know what to expect on test day (because the only surprises that day should involve the triumphant return of your social life).
