For example, reviewing financial formulas is a good use of your study time. Understanding the formula concepts and related scenarios will help you become a successful registered representative. It is important to avoid just trying to memorize the calculations, but instead take the time to fully understand how to apply them.
On exam day make sure you have a plan-of-action. First, get there early. It is recommended to arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled appointment.
