description: Do the terms subordinated debentures and conduit tax treatment give you a headache? Do you need to take the Series 6 exam? If you can answer yes to both of these questions, then you've come to the right place. Pass the 6 shows you, step-by-step, how not to be misled by the questions. Repeatedly, just like on the exam, Walker will try to misdirect you by providing extraneous information or irrelevant choices, then point out the incorrect conclusion you may have jumped to. And for questions filled with lots of numbers and concepts, Walker suggests reading the last line (and maybe even the answers) first, to help you see which information they're feeding you up front that may be completely irrelevant. In addition to practice questions liberally sprinkled throughout its lessons, Pass the 6 includes two complete 100-question practice finals as well as study sheets summarizing each lesson, frequently asked questions, an indispensable section on test-taking tips, and a handy list of acronyms as well as a glossary. Robert Walker, a professional trainer who specializes in the NASD/NASAA Series 63, 65/66, 6, and 7 exams, has written this book for those who are about to venture into the land of securities examinations. Armed with an M.F.A. in writing and a B.A. in English, Walker has managed to translate Securities-ese into plain English, with a liberal dash of humor. This must-have book guides you through the intricacies of the Series 6 exam. Walker takes the exam apart piece by piece, and explains terms and concepts with a sense of humor and ease not found in other exam guides. Once you've finished this book, you will be able to take the test with confidence. So what are you waiting for? There's a test to be taken. Get studying!
