Series 6 Tutoring FAQ
FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) requires all financial professionals interested in selling mutual funds and annuities to pass the Series 6 exam (alternatively IR or Investment Company and Variable Contracts Products Representative Qualification Exam) for certification. The Series 6 assesses the competency of an entry-level representative to perform his or her job as an investment company and variable contracts products representative. The exam underwent a format change October 2018, making many past exams moot as practice. If you could use assistance to prepare for the test, Varsity Tutors can help you find a qualified Series 6 tutor to help you.
The Series 6 consists of 50 multiple-choice questions over a 90-minute testing session, a dramatic change compared to the old exam's 100 questions over 135 minutes. The questions are broken down into the following job functions: Seeking Business for the Broker-Dealer from Customers and Potential Customers (24%), Opening Accounts After Obtaining and Evaluating Customers' Financial Profile and Investment Objectives (16%), Providing Customers with Information About Investments, Making Suitable Recommendations, Transferring Assets, and Maintaining Appropriate Records (50%), and Obtaining and Verifying Customers' Purchase and Sale Instructions; Processing, Completing, and Confirming Transactions (10%).
You might be tempted to focus exclusively on the third section worth half of your final score, but you need a more balanced approach if you want to pass this test. Your Series 6 tutor can design study sessions with your individual needs in mind, concentrating on any topics you struggle with to help you feel more confident. Any questions asked can also be answered in a timely manner, ensuring that you never move on from a subject you're still uncomfortable with.
FINRA is also notorious for deceptively wording questions, causing many students to miss questions that they know the answer to. Your Series 6 tutor can provide practice exams and other learning aids to help familiarize you with their tricks before you sit for the exam. They can also teach you to accept the correct answer as correct without questioning it, as doing so is sure to cause problems considering the disconnect between practical financial experience and FINRA's theoretical questions.
If you're ready to start working with a Series 6 tutor, we can help you find one who meets your academic and scheduling requirements. We also provide a Live Learning Platform that lets you study on your mobile device anywhere with a stable internet connection. It offers a suite of features to improve the studying experience as well, so reach out to us today to get started.
