Series 7 study guide
What is inside
Top-Off coverage: seeking business and opening accounts, investment products (equity, debt, options, funds), recommendations and suitability, order handling, confirmations, settlement, and regulatory records. Options cards include spreads, straddles, and margin requirements. Municipal securities and MSRB rules have dedicated prompts.
Official FINRA Series 7 Top-Off is **125 scored questions / 3 hours 45 minutes / ~72% pass**. Our free mock is a **60-question / 90-minute** job-function diagnostic — not a full-length 125Q bank like Mastery/TakeZero/FreeFellow.
Study plan with the free mock
Run the [free 60-question Series 7 practice test](/mock-exams/series-7-readiness-check) after one pass through products and suitability cards. Use topic scores to decide whether options or municipal chapters need a second week. Aim for 20 cards/day while working full time — the deck is sized for that cadence, not 100-card marathon sessions.
Pitfalls this deck targets
Representatives mix suitability standards for elderly clients, options exercise vs assignment, and when a principal must approve a trade. Cards isolate those rule boundaries.
