I wasn't able to see it but i see people saying they supplemented with the qbank. Do i have to buy both the 63 and 65 then? or did yall just buy the basic 66 package and only use the qbank?

i usually reset the counter by doing the hard reset. holding the power button until the 3 beeps.

It hasn't worked in a while. I’m up to 430 cycles. anyone have this issue and been able to fix it?

I feel so overwhelmed with this material. Maybe I was underestimating it. Everyone makes such a fuss over the 7 but kind of waved off the 66 “if you passed the 7 youll be *fine!*”

I do not feel fine lol

I’m using STC. I failed the greenlight exams, and then didn't do well on the first “final” so I'm going back to the drawing board.

if anyone has tips on how you tackled the concepts, or even just pushing past a mental block, it would be greatly appreciated!

i took 2 yesterday morning and 2 this morning when it should have been 12 hours, not 24. if i take 2 more in 12 hours is that too many? i can feel the prodromal tingles in my lip still and have sores on both corners right now.

i also have l-lysine coming tomorrow 🫠

My 2 cats are 5- still young, but i am aware that time is passing and am starting to think about the next 5 years.

I just finished the 7 and my manager is out for 2 weeks so he can’t sign off on my 66 training materials being ordered.

I’m trying not to forget everything i just learned for this exam. For the next 2 weeks what should i keep refreshing from the 7 that will help on the 66?

Holy shit I’m still in shock.
Here is my post exam brain dump while i was in the car:

OID- like 3 on that wtf
what happens with accretion
Who decides how the discount is accreted
Options hedging/ options in general
Communication rules
Complaints resolution/rules
Retention times:
Eg “a rep is going thru stuff from the past year, what can he throw away?” A) complaints from like 8 years ago, etc
Muncipals, how are taxed, exceptions
Mutual funds,
Selling from a mutual fund with a tender offer???
Taxation on retirement,
Coverdell - one question on that,
Know unqualified vs qualified
Some annuity questions
Options hedging
Suitability
2 margins questions - know how to calculate mkt price for minimum maintenance
One beta question
Dividend ratio question and i just divided shit til an answer matched bc i blanked on the equation
Know what mutual funds contain.
Why a biz would do a reverse merger and how shareholders are affected by a spinoff

We started late because the center was behind, and our computers froze halfway but thankfully i didnt have to restart and got an untimed bathroom break out of it while they fixed the issue.

KEN THANK YOU, i reviewed 13+14 in my kaplan book and did 7 options questions as a warmup this morning like you commented on my panic post last night! I got all of them right which told me finally it had all come together in the literal final hour 😅I’ve watched so many of your videos i literally heard you say “boom” a few times when i solved a problem! Everyone else who commented a resource you helped me squeak through as well.

I wasnt getting past a 67 on Kaplans finals. I took one more practice final last night and finally scored a 72 which i took as a good omen. Thank god bc if id scored low it would have been terrible for morale. Dont recommend that lol

If you want to know anything else ill try to remember. On to the 66!

I test tomorrow and i cannot scrape over 67(ha) on kaplan finals to save my life. I got 80 on Kens Brutal exam (i didn’t cheat either!) i took the baseline exam and got 81.

I at the point where i know it’s too late to make huge progress but can anyone recommend material that i can scan the day before?

I have the options matrix from achievable down, I’ve been writing and rewriting formulas so i don’t miss anything for blanking on math.

For the SIE i got 67 on the finra website exam the night before and passed, so I’m trying to carry hope into the exam tomorrow though i know this is a bigger beast.

Any help/encouragement would be greatly appreciated!
