Training Consultants vs Pass Perfect
Has anyone here used the Training Consultants study material to pass their S7? How about Pass Perfect? A couple of people who have used TC highly recommended them to me. They say their practice questions and final exams are closer to the real thing than Pass Perfect’s. Does anyone out there have any experience using either of these company’s testing material? I’d appreciate any feedback you guys can give me.
I used TC for the 66 … a bit annoying but it worked like a charm.
Can you elaborate a little bit more for me on your experience with them? Did you pass the first time around?
I did … the 66 material include a book and videos. I followed what they said and scored am 82 with minimal effort.
My 7 was done via Jones so have no comment on that.
i failed the 66 twice with STC and am using Kaplin to study. In my opinion kaplin better. I am taking my 66 on wed so we will see how good kaplin really is!

I also used pass perfect for both the 7 and 66. I felt very well prepared and had no trouble with either exam.
Does anyone find getting a 96% on the S7 believable?
I have recently started using Training Consultants after switching from Fire Solutions and really like them a lot.
I have met at least 3 people that have used Training Consultants and passed on the first attempt. The book is only 125 pages, but the course material is just what you need to know to pass. I just took the Series 66 today and passed on the first attempt with an 87%. About 25 questions were almost identical. The rest of the material was what I needed to know.
So, I can't recommend them enough. I hope that it helps.

Why? I got a 92 and could name 10 questions I missed that I had down to 2. Its not that far out there.

I know its annoying, but man, I remember all of it. The technique is quite effective.
I have also talked to her twice on the phone and she is no BS. I called with a question about IRR and she literally said "look, I do not understand entirely why someone would want to calculate IRR or everything that might go into it, but I know that all you need to know about IRR is in my material."
It was direct and to the point. I take the test on Friday and feel very good about it after seeing how well people have done using TCs material. Tina said that with the newest revision of the material that out of the last 200 and something people that have taken it over 92% have passed.
Someone in my office used it and passed with a 94 yesterday
Just wanted to add my two cents about the 7 & 66 materials.
I used the Training Consultants material and I am a believer. Multiple choice tests were never my forte but the way the course work is presented made it possible for me to pass both the 7 with an 85 and the 66 with an 80.
I used stc for s7 passed with 84. Used stc for s66 failed with 71 & used TC for 66 second time passed with 80. TC highly recommended for 66. Good luck!
Has anyone had any experience between these two companies recently?
Pass perfect or Training Consultants? Best Results? Easiest?
Thank you in advance
Why would you be looking for something that is easy?
Does anyone have TC material I can buy from ya? I’m currently using passperfect (firm sponsored) but idk... I’m not feeling confident on the material’s approach, and have been reading great reviews about TC
Does anyone have TC materials for sale? need to take the 7 again .
You should try one of the other prep providers such as Pass Perfect or STC.
I passed the 7 about a month ago on my first try. I primarily used TC (two weeks out I purchased the Kaplan QBank - highly rec if you need more prep). TC is ok.. I found some of their shortcut tips to be beneficial for the actual exam. However, the lack of systemic updates to the material was very frustrating. For example, TC literally dubbed "FINRA" over NASD for roughly a quarter of the video lectures. They also mentioned multiple times throughout the program to know X old data and X new data..
I came from a completely different professional background before joining my firm. They opened my 4-month window right away so TC made the most sense to me given my experience.
I would only suggest TC to someone if they are brand new to the industry and are in a time crunch.
My top three prep providers for licensing exam are
Kaplan
Pass Perfect
STC
If anyone is interested in getting a discount on Kaplan materials for a licensing exam such as the series 6, 7, 63, 65, 66 and the SIE, you can use the link below:

Hi All,
I understand the stress you are all under. Here is what worked for me:
I passed the series 7 with Passperfect with a 76% on the first attempt. I studied 4 months and double the amount of hours as they recommended. Passperfect was good for this. I would use them.
I failed the 66 twice with Passperfect both times, and I passed on the third try when I switched to Training Consultants. It isn't as good of a platform, but they touch on key aspects that simply were NOT on passperfect. Even if you are smart there are questions you would not be able to get. DCF and Bond Evaluations specifically were not covered in the correct manner. TC did this. I passed my test on the 3rd(and last chance).
I remember reading how someone switched to TC for the 66 and I want to thank them by putting it back out there for everyone else!
Aritaub, DCF/bond valuation is covered in great detail in Pass Perfect. Bond valuation uses DCF.
