Peter, I just wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude. I attended your cram course for the Series 7, and I finally passed! It took some time, but your voice stayed with me throughout: "Remember, one side—the other is just the opposite. Save the brain space." Your approach truly resonated with me, and I took detailed notes on all the key points you emphasized. No matter which vendor we used for study materials, your cram course made all the difference. Your insights and teaching style stuck with me, and I wouldn’t have passed without them. The real exam was much harder than the finals I took. I also felt like I had to use my calculator a lot more than expected. For anyone preparing for this exam, my advice is simple: skim the book, but don’t waste too much time reading every word. The key is to test, test, test—learning how questions are asked and how to answer them is what really makes the difference. I used Pass Perfect and I took 10 finals, 2 additional randomized quizzes, and at least 5–10 extra chapter quizzes per topic, and that practice was invaluable. I owe this success to you, Peter! You’re a rock star, and I couldn’t have done it without your help. AJ- Wells Fargo

Courses are fine, tests are fine. Shoddy website. But there are several major issues: 1. When you select the course, you don't know how many credits, whether it is an ethics or product course. 2. There is no dashboard showing how many total CE credits of ethics and products you have. 3. The website says test results are sent to FINRA daily. However, it is clear from FINRA's website that they are not receiving results from PassPerfect daily. When I emailed PassPerfect support about it, they acknowledged that they do NOT send results to FINRA daily. In other words, they acknowledged that they are lying on the website. This is very basic, simple stuff that PassPerfect is doing very very poorly.

The material is great however for the money I pay I would have appreciated ability to download handbook for reference purposes in future. The exam is quite frustrating and a fiasco the questions are unreasonably difficult and complex. For example a particular calculation required that I would have memorize present value and future value tables also I would have had to know the 2022 social security taxable limit on income etc they purpose was for continuing education not to get a science of doctorate degree in life insurance. What a waste of money and time.

Pete helped me study for the Series 10 Exam. He helped me break down the study material in a way that I could understand it. He made it easy for me to master the hard concepts on the exam. Half way through the exam I knew I was going to pass because I understood every question that was asked at that point. He really made a lot of the material very understandable and has great analogies to help you remember key concepts. If you follow his process and study the material, you will feel confident during the exam!

Peter is the greatest tutor/instructor out there. If you haven’t used Peter to help you pass your FINRA exam he is a must. I engaged his help after failing my Series 10 twice. Aced it the final time with Peter’s help. Peter makes the material interesting with antidotes from real life situations and diddy’s to help remember complex concepts. Donna Smothermon

After having attebded GearUp live conferences many years since 2004, I am extremely disappointed in what is happening to what use to be a reliable GearUp team. My opinion, Thomson Reuters should not have ever gotten Cerifi involved in the GearUp or any other live conferences because of the poor Gen X customer "no service." I have encountered combative behavior, uninformed incompetent Cerifi Reps, and just plain old disorganized approach. They take a lot of days off and this alone comes across as not being proactive in terms of customer service. They can never seem to answer a question without putting me on hold. Good Luck TR! Guess I will be keeping my $1,400+ in my pocket going forward. Isn't worth the trouble anymore since the pandemic. I would rather do self study since is clear they don't care anymore and don't seem to need my hard earned money.

I studied for the Series 9&10 utilizing Kaplan and did not fair well in passing the S10. At the advisement of my broker/dealer, I switched to Pass Perfect and coaching calls with Peter Gibowicz from Bull and Bear Training. I was able to pass my Series 9 on the first try and the Series 10 on my first try after utilizing these two resources.

There are way too many gaps in information, and there is no cohesion in materials. Series 7 had a packet of 9 pages with "corrections" that was received with the book. Those are the errors that were caught. The tests on the site are even worse with misinformation.

Never got to activate and work properly

I am so frustrated with the Series 79 course. I passed my first 3 exams on first try using Achievable (love it!!!), but they don't offer a 79 course. Passperfect is frustrating. The tests asks questions that they haven't provided enough information to allow one to figure out. There is a video that goes with each chapter that is simply slides being read by a guy with the most monotone voice ever. There are no explanations. They do not add value to the textbook and cannot substitute for the book. I may have to end up getting a different resource, because this isn't working.
