Who it's for
New hires at FINRA member broker-dealers in the United States who must pass the Series 7 to keep their job and have a firm-imposed deadline of roughly six weeks. Also fits existing employees switching to a registered-representative role that requires the qualification.
About this playbook
This six-week study plan guides a new broker-dealer employee through every step required to pass the Series 7 exam and complete their registration: securing sponsorship, filing Form U4, reviewing SIE content, mastering the high-weight exam sections (options, municipal securities, debt, equity, customer accounts, and regulations), and running a practice-exam gauntlet until scores exceed the pass-predictor threshold. The path is organized as a week-by-week calendar with hourly time estimates so the reader knows exactly what to study each day. The plan does not replace a vendor's study materials — it assumes the reader has a Kaplan, STC, or PassPerfect package — and it does not cover the SIE exam itself beyond the rapid review that re-activates prerequisite knowledge. Retake waiting periods are outside this plan's scope; the goal is a single pass in six weeks.
