Tips to pass the series 7 with minimal effort

Use Pass the 7 book and practice tests from SCT or STC whichever. I hadn't taken a test in 12 years and studied for 5 days and passed easily.
 
Quote from ProgrammerGuy:

so... if you fail it the first time, when can you take it for a second??? third???

You shouldn't even be thinking like this. Stop wasting time on elitetrader when you could be studying, spend 2-3 hours a day for a month and you'll be fine.
 
Take the cram course and do the mock tests over and over again till you get consistently over 90%. You'll get 70% on the actual test slam dunk.
 
There were guys at bright studying a week and getting high 90s. One guy just studing for the weekend and got something in the low 80s. He had traded options for several years which helped.
 
I am planning on taking the exam at the end of the month. I have the Series 7 progressive CD. What is better to pay attention to?? the CD or the written practice exams??
 
I was basically told "pass this or you'll be fired" so I read the book, and then spent the weekend before taking practice tests over and over. I got an 89. There is no short cut. Take a class too, it helps certain sections of the test.

I wasn't a retail stock broker (which is what the test is clearly aimed at), so the test had zero relevance to what I did, but that didn't seem to matter. After you take it, you get to take (continuing ed) every 2 or 3 years too. Fun.
