What is the Series 7 Readiness exam?

Each attempt draws 60 questions weighted like FINRA's Series 7 outline (4 Seeks Business / 6 Opens Accounts / 42 Investment Recommendations / 8 Customer Instructions) from a 120-question bank of original scenario and calculation items, so Mock Pass retakes see new questions. Every wrong answer has a teaching note. Official Series 7 Top-Off: 130 items (125 scored + 5 unscored pretest), 3 hours 45 minutes, passing score 72 on FINRA's equated scale. UniPrep2Go readiness target: 72%. Not a full official FINRA practice exam. This UniPrep2Go page is an independent timed practice test — not official exam material.
