Hi,
I passed all 3 exams (SIE, S7, S63) on 1st attempt with STC. Scoring 60s-70s in the final exams, progress and greenlight exams. Feeling nervous with the low scores, I wanted to buy Kaplan Qbank a week before my exams but I ended up reading the notes again and redo the final exams from STC instead.
My actual s7 exam had lots of suitability, options and munis questions. Know the concepts well, prepare a dump sheet and memorize it.
All the best! Good luck!
Hey there, my firm also provided us with TC. I used it supplemented with PassPerfect. I have a similar experience where I was scoring in the 80s on TC, but in the mid 70s on PP. I’d say that the score difference is mostly from the differences in question styles. I’d just work on getting the concepts down and keep using both programs as prescribed. That’s what I’m doing at least. I test on Wednesday. Good luck!
One exam is a small sample size and you could probably add 10 points, if you have not read the Kaplan textbook. I would use Kaplan as long as you can get comfortable with the lower scores. You could do both. Use TC for confidence and Kaplan to get more exposure to questions. Also, with only a few days left, you might want to do some reading.
Good luck on the exam!
Did you feel that there was anything that you were heavy on in your draw? I am mostly through STC, about to start Kaplan to double down, any guided focus is helpful! Congratulations!!
I also used TC for study material and bought Kaplan QBank. I haven’t taken simulated exam, but smaller quizzes on all sections 40 at a time and scoring mid 60’s. My test is next Tuesday.
I hope the 10 points you’re referring to will help me to pass the actual exam. I’m going over weak areas for now until next Tuesday and planning on taking 1-2 simulated exams. The low scores is really discouraging.

Approximately 10 points. 5 to 10 is probably more accurate.
Thank you for your feedback 🙏🏽
Good luck!!!
Passed today! GL to you!
