Preguntas Frecuentes

How is the Series 10 different from the Series 9 exam?

The Series 9 is a shorter exam focused specifically on options supervision, while the Series 10 (General Module) covers a broad range of topics including compliance, customer accounts, regulatory framework, and supervision of all sales activities. Many candidates take both exams to qualify as a General Securities Sales Supervisor.

What is the passing score for the Series 10 exam?

The passing score is typically 70%. However, since this is a practice test, use it to gauge your readiness by aiming for consistent scores above 75% to account for exam-day pressure.

Can I take the Series 10 without prior supervisory experience?

While not strictly prohibited, the exam is designed for individuals with significant industry experience, typically at least four years of relevant securities work. Practical supervisory experience is highly recommended to understand the application of rules.

What are the most heavily tested topics on the Series 10?

Customer accounts and suitability, along with supervision of sales activities, are the most heavily weighted sections. Expect many questions on know-your-customer (KYC) rules, suitability obligations for different account types, and procedures for reviewing communications and trades.

How long should I study for the Series 10 practice test?

For the full exam, most candidates study 80-120 hours over 4-6 weeks. For this 62-question practice test, allocate at least 2-3 hours for a thorough review, including time to analyze incorrect answers and revisit related rules.
