The Series 79 Exam is extremely challenging and thorough test preparation is essential for success. Series 79 Exam Secrets Study Guide is the ideal prep solution for anyone who wants to pass the Series 79 Exam.

Not only does it provide a comprehensive guide to the Series 79 Exam as a whole, it also provides practice test questions as well as detailed explanations of each answer.

  • An analysis of general securities industry regulations
  • Comprehensive practice questions with detailed answer explanations
It's filled with the critical information you'll need in order to do well on the test: the concepts, procedures, principles, and vocabulary that the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) expects you to have mastered before sitting for the exam.

The Collection, Analysis, and Evaluation of Data section covers:
  • Research reports

These sections are full of specific and detailed information that will be key to passing the Series 79 Exam. Concepts and principles aren't simply named or described in passing, but are explained in detail. The guide is laid out in a logical and organized fashion so that one section naturally flows from the one preceding it. Because it's written with an eye for both technical accuracy and accessibility, you will not have to worry about getting lost in dense academic language.

Each answer is explained in depth, in order to make the principles and reasoning behind it crystal clear.
