If you're an aspiring stockbroker who's preparing for your licensing exam, Varsity Tutors can set you up with a Pittsburgh Series 7 exam prep program that helps you prepare more efficiently. Before you can work as a stockbroker, you need to pass the Series 7. This is a comprehensive exam that assesses your understanding of various industry-related topics, like taxation, debt instrument, investment risks, and other concepts brokers use in their day-to-day operations. Because of the complex nature of the Series 7, some students find preparing for the assessment to be challenging and overwhelming. What's more, before you can even take the Series 7, you first need to pass its prerequisite test, the Securities Industry Essentials exam. The good news is that you can prepare for both of these assessments with the help of a good exam prep program. Even students enrolled in financial programs at top institutions like Duquesne University and the University of Pittsburgh have benefitted from working with a private tutor or registering for a Pittsburgh Series 7 exam prep course, and you can too. Read below to find out how.
What concepts will be covered during Pittsburgh Series 7 exam prep?
There are two different versions of Series 7 exam prep available: private tutoring sessions and virtual classes. While the method of instruction is significantly different between the two programs, the content covered is nearly identical. That's because both study methods, regardless of how different the learning experiences are, share the same primary objective--preparing people for the Series 7. Both types of exam prep cover all of the essential concepts you need to know when working as a broker. That means you'll take an in-depth look at topics like retirement plans and customer disclosures, and learn how to apply that information practically outside of the classroom.
Another key concept you can expect to cover during exam prep is test-taking skills. The Series 7 is a comprehensive standardized test that consists of 125 multiple-choice questions. With only 225 minutes to answer these questions, you might feel the urge to rush through the assessment if you're not used to standardized tests. Fortunately, these study sessions can help you develop your organizational and time management skills, so you're better prepared to take standardized tests. That way, you can reduce the likelihood of feeling overwhelmed and rushed on test day. Many students who've studied in similar learning environments have admitted that learning this concept was just as valuable as reviewing the actual material. That's because many students struggle with standardized tests, because they've never learned an effective strategy to follow when taking them.
What are the benefits of the different types of Pittsburgh Series 7 exam prep?
Are you someone who prefers engaging discussions and well-planned lessons? If so, you might want to consider enrolling in a Pittsburgh Series 7 exam prep class. These classes are conducted online, where you follow a specially designed test-prep curriculum under the guidance of a professional instructor. Sessions are conducted via our Live Learning Platform, using video chat and virtual whiteboards to create an engaging online environment. Best of all, since you're studying alongside others preparing for the same assessment, you also get the opportunity to collaborate with your peers. This means that after covering an important concept, you can hold discussions and work together as a class to solve problems.
Working with a private Pittsburgh Series 7 exam prep tutor will give you a more personalized learning experience. Here, you'll work one-on-one with a personal instructor who's able to create custom-tailored curriculum based on your needs and preferred learning styles. One of the biggest advantages of private lessons is that you're in more control. You decide whether you want to spend extra time covering difficult concepts, or if you want to completely skip content you already know. That way, you can use your study time as efficiently as possible.
How can I get set up with Pittsburgh Series 7 exam preparation?
Once you're ready to get started, registering for lessons is quick and easy. Simply contact Varsity Tutors and speak with one of our educational consultants about your Pittsburgh Series 7 exam prep options. They can answer any questions you may have, and are happy to enroll you in online classes or help you find a private instructor that's able to accommodate your busy schedule.
