This past year I used Achievable to study for the SIE, the Series 7, and the Series 63, and passed all the exams on my first attempt. 5 years ago I used Kaplan to study for the Series 65 and it took me 3 attempts to pass.

Achievable’s test bank of questions have a different style and tone than the real exam questions. The 63 was my last exam to take and I was not feeling comfortable with only Achievable’s questions, so I purchased ExamFX for their practice exams. I do not think I would have passed the first time without ExamFX because ExamFX’s questions were more like the real exam questions.

For a reference on where I was in each course before I took the exams:  
**SIE**  
Exam readiness: 95%  
Practice Exams:  
#1 72%  
#2 68%  
#3 68%  
#4 73%  
#5 84%  
#6 77%  
#7 79%  
#8 91%

**Series 7**  
Exam readiness: 87%  
Practice Exams:  
#1 71%  
#2 80%  
#3 80%  
#4 70%  
#5 76%

**Series 63**

#2 85%  
#3 63%

#5 87%  
#6 77%
