Real-Time SIE Performance Coaching
To help you stay motivated, productive, and engaged as you prepare for the Securities Industry Essentials (SIE) Exam, Knopman Marks is offering free, live-streaming weekly review sessions.
The interactive classes allow participants to suggest topics for review, ask questions, and get answers in real time. Dave Meshkov, managing director at Knopman Marks, makes the sessions lively, informative, and entertaining. To keep students engaged and gauge how well they’re mastering the material, Meshkov launches frequent polls for students and also invites them to send their questions via the chat throughout the class.
“I know it’s a tough time right now to be preparing for these exams,” Meshkov acknowledges. Though it’s unclear when Prometric will re-open all test centers, Meshkov reminds students that a lot is within their control when it comes to investing time and energy into their SIE test prep.
“You can control how much you prepare so you are ready to take the test when you’re able to do so,” Meshkov says. “We can take this opportunity to learn and study this material to better ourselves.”
Be SIE Exam-Ready
Studying for the SIE Exam as a group connects students who are sheltering in place at home to a vast community that’s in this together. Meshkov starts review sessions with brief breathing exercises to help students enter a calm and receptive state.
“These breathing exercises help you get centered so you have better recollection of what we cover,” Meshkov explains. “The information will be more available to you as you drill and study.”
