Good walkthrough on the test question
By Dawn Dean on 11/13/2018
I took this course to help me decide if I wanted to change careers and attempt getting securities licenses. I'm glad I did. JD is a patient teacher and was easy to understand even for a complete novice. I would seriously consider taking additional courses he offers to expand my own understanding of securities trading whether or not I decide to take the test.

It makes it seem that series 7 exam is easy, I am not sure how I feel about it, but overall, i like, simple enough, yet that is what worries me.
