Why practice questions are the core of Series 7 prep
The 2026 FINRA Series 7 exam delivers 125 scored multiple-choice items plus 5 unscored pretest items — 130 items total — in 3 hours and 45 minutes. The passing score is 72. The SIE is a corequisite, so most candidates take SIE first or alongside. PassSeries7 is an independent study product and is not affiliated with FINRA. The Series 7 is not a vocabulary test — it is a test of applying rules to customer scenarios under time pressure. Practice questions are where that application is built. Reading and flashcards handle recognition; a mapped practice bank handles reasoning. Candidates who pass consistently sit with every explanation, not every question.
What a useful Series 7 question bank looks like
The test of a bank is not how many questions it has. It is how the questions are written and what they teach you when you miss one.
Mapped to sections
Every question tagged to the exact textbook section it tests. That makes review fast: you miss a question, you open the section, you close the loop.
Worked explanations for every answer
Not a three-word justification. The explanation should walk through why the correct answer is correct, why the distractors are wrong, and which rule governs the scenario.
Coverage that matches the exam's weight
Function 3 (products, suitability, disclosures) accounts for 91 of 125 scored items. A serious bank reflects that — not a proportional 25% spread across four topics.
Fresh wording, not recycled public banks
Scraped questions from free forums are often decades old. Reg T, MSRB rules, and product definitions drift. In-house writing keeps the bank calibrated to the current outline.
Endless practice from the same bank
A session that runs until you stop, with repeat-spacing so recent items don't reappear back-to-back, turns the bank into a reliable daily loop.
How to actually review a wrong answer
The most common leak in Series 7 prep is marking an answer wrong, reading the explanation once, and moving on. The loop that sticks looks different.
- State the rule in your own words. Before reading the explanation, write or speak the rule the question was testing. If you can't, that's the lesson — not the answer choice.
- Re-read the scenario against the rule. Identify the specific sentence or number in the prompt that triggered the rule. Most Series 7 traps live in a qualifier you skimmed.
- Open the section. Read the two paragraphs of the textbook that govern the question. Five minutes now saves ten on the real exam.
- Flag the card. Either adjust the related flashcard or add a note, so the card's next review actively tests the weakness.
How PassSeries7's practice system is built
PassSeries7 ships 1,000 mapped practice questions tagged to every section across the 20-chapter, 436-page textbook. Every question carries a worked explanation. An endless-practice mode draws from the same bank and spaces recent items so repeat exposure is productive, not memorized. Mapped sets, mixed sets, and section-targeted sets are all available inside one account that syncs between web and the native iPhone app. The bank is included in every plan — $90/month or $420 lifetime — alongside the textbook, 385 flashcards, and the 125-question full-length exam simulation.
Candidate questions
Frequently asked
How many practice questions do I need for the Series 7?
1,000 mapped questions plus endless-practice mode is enough to cover the 2026 FINRA outline at scenario depth. Volume for its own sake is a trap — a smaller bank with strong explanations outperforms a bloated one with shallow ones.
Are PassSeries7 practice questions editor-reviewed?
Yes. Every question and explanation is editor-reviewed and tagged to the section it tests, so practice follows the same chapter sequence as the handbook.
What's the difference between endless practice and a set?
A set is a finite batch (for example, 10 questions tied to a section you just read). Endless practice is a single continuous session that draws from the mapped bank and spaces recent items, ideal for a long review block or a commute.
How hard should practice questions feel?
Good practice questions feel slightly harder than the real exam in explanation depth and slightly easier in time pressure. If a bank feels much easier than the real thing, it isn't preparing you. If it feels much harder, it's wasting your confidence.
