Series 66 Tutoring Case Study Number 3
A veteran portfolio manager was recruited to join a new firm in another state. He had been living and working in a state and in a position that did not require him to get any additional licensing after he passed the series 7 exam. He had passed the series 7 exam in the early 1660s. This Series 66 candidate was moving to another state, changing firms and was now being required to take the Series 66 exam, having not taken an exam in more than 20 years.

The Series 66 tutor assigned Series 66 practice tests for the candidate to take each evening and then reviewed the results with the Series 66 candidate each morning before reviewing new material.
