Varsity Tutors can help you start your stockbroking career by setting you up with a comprehensive Columbus Series 7 exam prep program. Before you can become a stockbroker, you'll need to pass the Series 7 to receive your license. This in-depth test covers a number of financial topics related to brokering and assesses your ability to evaluate customers' financial profiles, inform clients of various investment opportunities, and maintaining accurate transaction records. On top of that, before you can even take the Series 7, you first need to pass then Securities Industry Essentials exam. And if you're new to the industry, this means that you'll be required to study and understand a lot of concepts before you can receive your license. Even top students enrolled in financial programs at institutions like Franklin University and Capital University can struggle with the Series 7. There's a lot of information to cover, so knowing what concepts to focus on is a must when preparing. Fortunately, you can increase your chances of success by working with a private tutor or enrolling in a virtual Columbus Series 7 exam prep course. Read on to find out how.
What concepts will be covered during Columbus Series 7 exam prep?
You can choose between two types of exam prep programs: private tutoring or online classes. The right program for you depends on a number of factors, including your schedule, personality, and preferred learning styles. With that said, both courses are designed with a primary goal in mind--to prepare you for the Series 7. As such, you can expect for both methods of instruction to cover the same topics that you'd find on the actual assessment.
Regardless of which program you sign up for, you'll be able to review key concepts covered on the Series 7. Topics like regulations, retirement plans, mutual funds, and other concepts associated with stockbroking are all covered in these study sessions. What's more, the goal of exam prep isn't to just make you memorize these topics, it's to help you understand them. This means that your exam prep sessions can present key material in a way that's easier to understand and apply in the real world. This is important for developing practical knowledge that you can use when actually working as a broker.
The other main concept that's covered in these programs is test-taking skills. The Series 7 exam is a lengthy standardized test that consists of 125 multiple-choice questions which you'll have to answer in 225 minutes. Unfortunately, a lot of people struggle with standardized tests because they find the questions to be confusing, or they're overwhelmed by the sheer volume of content presented on the exam. By participating in an exam prep program, you also get the opportunity to sharpen your test-taking and organizational skills so that you're less likely to feel stressed and confused when taking the assessment.
What are the benefits of the different types of Columbus Series 7 exam prep?
If you're someone who prefers learning in an environment that's been built specifically for you, working with a private Columbus Series 7 exam tutor is a great way to study. Private lessons give you the opportunity to learn in a way that's best suited for your personality and learning style. They also give you more control over the direction and pace of your lessons. You get to decide what areas you want to spend most of your time focusing on. If you want to devote more time to covering challenging concepts, your tutor is happy to help. You can also skip past material that you've already mastered so that you're always getting the most use out of your study time.
If you want to study in a collaborative learning environment, check out the Columbus Series 7 exam prep class. Here, you'll engage in online lessons over our Live Learning Platform. Using video chat and virtual whiteboards, you'll follow a professional instructor as they go over test prep curriculum and talk about the test in general. Because you're learning in a classroom environment, you also get the opportunity to collaborate and engage in discussions with your peers, which enhances the learning experience for a number of people.
