Failed 39/60 used achieveable
I took the Series 63 today and I failed, missed 4 too many question so I was close but not enough to keep me up at night. I have already passed the SIE and Series 6 by using achieveable and thought it was helpful so I used it again for the 63. It was not nearly as good for the 63. The achieveable practice tests were much more complex than the real thing, which may seem like it would make it easier, but in reality it made it to where I was spending my time studying much more complex concepts that were not even mentioned on the exam. If I knew that I needed to spend more time to master the more baseline concepts I would have done it but the practice tests/content made it seem like I would need a general understanding of the smaller stuff and need to know a lot about the more complex issues so I focused on that. It is very frustrating because looking back I definitely spent enough time and was smart enough to pass on my first try but I spent my time on the wrong things. Even more frustrating that the things I needed to focus on were much easier to master than what I end up doing. Do not use achieveable for the 63, even if it was helpful for the SIE/Series 6-7. Does anyone have any suggestions for who has better study material for the Series 63? I have heard Knopman does a better job of mirroring the actual exam so I am thinking about using them. Anyone else have a similar experience that could give me some advice?
