Six Weeks of Studying Pays Off
I passed my Series 7 exam today with a score of 86.4% (216 correct out of 250), well above the 70% required to pass and a far cry from the 73% national average score. The two parts of the exam took about three hours to complete, only half the allotted six hours. I can't say as much for the guy sitting next to me, who started before I did and was still on the first part when I started my second part, after I took a 45 minute break. Ah, well, I guess these things come more easily to certain people!
Tired, mentally exhausted, and still upset about waking up before 6:00 AM today, I think it's time to play some video games and veg out. I start work at 9:15 Monday morning, so I have three days to do absolutely nothing. Fantastic.

Congrats, man, on passing the Series 7 test. But, come on, seriously, was there ever really any doubt? We all knew that you would do wonderfully on that exam. Hopefully, you won't see that guy who was sitting next to you at the exam center, you won't see him on Monday morning at the new job. Anyways, I hope that you have a great time over the next three days! Say goodbye to grad school Colin and say hello to corporate 8 to 5 Colin!
