Hi all. I’m taking my series 87 coming up on Monday and I am stressing out about it. I know worst case I fail and take it again like a week or two later but it’s distracting me from CFA studies and I want to TKO it ASAP but after taking the 5th STC practice questions and doing some google searching I realized how tricky the questions are and multiple people are saying that the actual test is much trickier.
Any tips for knocking this sucker to the ground so I can give the CFA my undivided stress??
Appreciate any help.
 
Acceptance is the first step toward change. Finding a solution to that problem is much more important than passing the series 87 exam.
 
there’s only 1 solution for you. praying to the sun god Ra
 
Failed by the width of a thread.
Please. Does anyone have any type of advice like outside sources, tips, tricks, etc??
I know its a relativily straightforward exam but the exam is extremely tricky. Any help would be much appreciated.

I hope you don’t answer your exam questions with perplexing contradictions.

Let me explain Geo. ”Relativly straightforward” means FINRA has rule xyz, 123 etc. NYSE has rule abc, 456, etc. Its not finding arbritrage profits with derivates. ”Extremely tricky” means it could be answer A, and it definitly could be answer B, but the best answer is C despite the fact that the question is absent of evidence eliminating A and/or B.
You see?
