Uniform Securities Agent State Law Examination (Series 63) — NASAA
The Series 63 (Uniform Securities Agent State Law Examination) from NASAA tests the state securities law an agent needs to know, from regulation of broker-dealers and agents to ethical practices, customer communications, investment advisers and remedies. States that require it use it as part of agent registration. SummitCert's portal offers explained practice questions, flashcards, a timed 60-question mock, a glossary and progress tracking by domain.

Series 63 exam requirements & cost
Straight from the certifying body — separate from what we charge for the study portal.
The NASAA Series 63 page describes 65 multiple-choice questions, of which 60 are scored and 5 are unidentified pretest items, in 75 minutes. To pass you need 43 of the 60 scored questions. The NASAA study guide (September 1, 2023) has eight areas: Regulation of Broker-Dealers (12%), Regulation of Broker-Dealer Agents (13%), Ethical Practices and Obligations (25%), Communication with Customers and Prospects (20%), Regulation of Securities and Issuers (9%), Regulation of Investment Advisers (5%), Regulation of Investment Adviser Representatives (5%) and Remedies and Administrative Provisions (11%). The NASAA page lists an exam fee of US$147 paid to FINRA and waiting periods before a retake of 30 days after the first and second failed attempts and 180 days after the third and later attempts. You need 43 of the 60 scored questions to pass, which is about 71.7%. The portal mock uses the same 60-question length, but its score is a self-check, not a prediction of your result. The NASAA page lists the Series 63 exam at US$147, paid to FINRA. Fees can change, so confirm the current amount with NASAA or FINRA. The content outline spreads questions across 8 areas; the largest are Ethical Practices and Obligations (25.0%); Communication with Customers and Prospects (20.0%); Regulation of Broker-Dealer Agents (13.0%). The full list of areas and weights is on the portal exam page. Registration is filed by your firm on Form U4, or by you through FINRA if you are not affiliated with a firm; state requirements vary, so confirm them with your state securities regulator. The portal is a practice aid built on the published study guide: it is not a copy of the exam and it does not predict your score.
