What Series 65 Binder is
Series 65 Binder (full name on the App Store: Series 65 Binder: 63 & 66 Prep) is a study binder for the Series 65, Series 63 and Series 66 state securities law exams. Choose your exam on first launch, and the app follows that exam's published content outline.
The home screen turns the outline into a checklist, with each area's approximate exam weight, coverage and practice accuracy against the exam's pass line. A box fills in when your accuracy reaches that line for the area. These practice indicators do not guarantee an exam result.
The app is an independent study aid and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by FINRA or NASAA.
