Well I've read through this thread on ET and it would seem this is the most difficult test the NASD offers. Or it's up there as one of the most difficult. I know that some don't like to follow links, so I'll post a few comments on the Series 55 here.

"I wanted to revise this thread in case any of you are currently studying for the Series 55. I just took the test, and I passed it (74), but just barely. The test was surprisingly difficult. I assumed I was well prepared because I was consistently scoring in the mid 80s, and even a 94, on the practice exams. The real test is much harder. Study hard! You don't want to take this test more than once.
Good Luck"

"I agree!
Do not take this test lighty.
More people have had trouble with the 55 than any of the other
test.
Study and Good Luck."

"Breakin,
Not to scare you, but I scored a 91 on the last Dearborn practice test and only scored a 74 on the real thing. I took about 5 practice tests and my range was 76-91. Good luck."

"I got a 70, whewww...............
that was a close one, I would recomend to anyone to take this test very seriously, It is not a test of how well you know the material like the 7. It is more test of your ability to figure out what they want for an answer.
I will be moving to Boca Raton to work at the Worldco office---
thanks for the input guys!"
