Who Runs SIE Exam Prep

SIE Exam Prep is a free practice question bank for the FINRA Securities Industry Essentials exam: 1,000+ questions, every answer verified against a current rule and cited to its source. It is written and reviewed by a securities exam preparation specialist and a FINRA exam and financial education writer, not a content farm, and it stays free until you pass.

The team

Michael Carter — Securities Exam Preparation Specialist

Michael leads the question bank: how the four sections are weighted, how each explanation is built, and the named “trap” every question is written to expose. No answer on this site gets to say what a rule says until the governing rule has been read.

Jennifer Mitchell, MBA — FINRA Exam & Financial Education Writer

Jennifer writes and edits the explanations, study plans, and glossary: dense regulatory language turned into plain English a first-time candidate can act on. She holds an MBA, and her focus is the exam itself: how a stem is read, where the distractor sits, and how to manage the clock.

How we keep the bank honest

Every question cites a primary source (the FINRA rule, SEC release, or IRS page that settles it), gets an adversarial second review before it ships, and the fact base is re-audited quarterly. The full process is public on our methodology page, and every confirmed error gets fixed in public within 48 hours on the corrections log.
