Course Overview
Pass the FINRA Securities Industry Essentials (SIE) Exam on the first try!
The FINRA Securities Industry Essentials (SIE) exam is a foundational requirement for those aspiring to work in the regulated securities industry. Passing this exam is a prerequisite for taking further FINRA licensing exams, such as the General Securities Representative (Series 7) exam and others. Even individuals not pursuing a licensed position but interested in a career in finance will find that completing the SIE exam demonstrates valuable industry knowledge to potential employers.
The most effective strategy for success is practice, practice, and more practice. Each set of practice questions mimics the format, topics, and timing of the official exam, helping you build familiarity and confidence. You will receive immediate results after completing each practice test, with detailed explanations of the answers and the option to retake the test until you achieve complete accuracy.
The official exam consists of 85 multiple-choice questions, requires a passing score of 70% or higher, and must be completed within 1 hour and 45 minutes. However, this practice series includes 510 questions, providing extensive preparation to ensure mastery of the material.
Please note that these practice questions are not actual questions from the official SIE exam. While they are designed to be similar in structure and content, the material here has not been reviewed, approved, or endorsed by FINRA, and no affiliation with FINRA is claimed or implied.

SIE exam practice tests effectively simulate the exam, covering key topics like securities and regulations. I am getting an idea of why some answers are right and others are wrong. While some questions may be more difficult than the exam, these tests offer valuable preparation and boost confidence for test day.

SAMPLE QUESTION:
Q. If XYZ declares a 1-for-4 reverse stock split, how many shares will an investor who had initially held 200 shares of XYZ stock priced at $ 10 each be left with, and what will be the new price per share?
800 shares at $40 per share
200 shares at $2.50 per share
50 shares at $10 per share
Answer: 50 shares at $40 per share
Explanation
A 1-for-4 reverse split cuts the number of shares in half, while the price of a share increases fourfold. The investor will have ownership of 50 shares with a value of $40 each.
Q2. A person employed by a brokerage firm who neither handles client transactions nor provides any service in the form of financial advice would be classified as:
A compliance officer
A non-registered person
A registered person
A licensed advisor
Answer: A non-registered person
Explanation: In the securities industry, individuals who handle client transactions or provide investment advice are required to be registered with FINRA (or a relevant regulatory body) and hold the appropriate licenses.
A person who does not handle client transactions or provide financial advice does not need to be registered. Therefore, they would be considered a non-registered person.
While a compliance officer does not typically provide direct financial advice, they are a registered person and would need to hold a relevant securities license.
The key point is that individuals who perform purely clerical, administrative, or back-office functions that are unrelated to client transactions or investment recommendations, do not need to hold a securities registration, classifying them as a non-registered person.

Several of the questions do not have the correct answer. Simple things like is 125k 50% of 250k or 75%? It is obviously 50% and the answer explanation says 50% but the correct answer is marked as 75%. Just a lack of attention to detail by the publisher. They should probably edit and review their product instead of just publishing the rough draft. Still 4 stars because while there are mistakes, the mistakes are limited to which option is the right answer - I did not see incorrect information in the detailed explanations for the answers.
