Sample Questions

Question 1 Easy
The 2026 annual gift exclusion per donee is:
Solution
C is correct.

The 2026 annual gift exclusion is $19,000\$19{,}000 per donee. This amount continues to be indexed for inflation under existing law; it was not specifically modified by OBBBA. Gifts at or below the annual exclusion do not use the unified lifetime exemption and do not require filing Form 709. Gift-splitting between spouses doubles the exclusion to $38,000\$38{,}000 per donee.
Question 2 Medium
Tax-loss harvesting is most beneficial for investors who:
Solution
D is correct.

Tax-loss harvesting is most beneficial for investors who have realized capital gains in taxable accounts because the harvested losses can offset those gains, reducing the current-year tax liability. The strategy involves selling depreciated securities to realize losses and reinvesting in similar (but not substantially identical) securities to maintain market exposure.
Question 3 Hard
A letter of intent in the context of special needs planning is best described as:
Solution
A is correct.

A letter of intent is a non-binding but critically important document that parents or caregivers prepare to guide future caregivers, guardians, and trustees. It typically includes information about the disabled individual's medical history, daily routines, behavioral patterns, social activities, dietary needs, and the family's wishes for quality of life. While not legally enforceable, it provides essential context that legal documents alone cannot capture.

What CFP candidates are saying

“Man, it helped a lot and was a critical part of my study sessions leading up to the CFP exam last month on the 23rd which was my THIRD attempt. I hammered the HARD questions the most especially in Tax, Insurance and Estate which were my weakest sections. With lots of happiness I PASSED and with your software and Dankos Krakens it got me so grooved into what the questions were asking and help identify the critical WORD of the question that determined the right answer.”
Dustin S.
“I did the College for Financial Planning (Kaplan) education course, and the Danko Live Review course. I would say the questions in your quizzes were definitely of the CFP difficulty. Pretty spot on actually. Danko was harder than the actual exam, the CFP provided practice test was a bit easier.”
William Z
“FreeFellow helped me pass the CFP. The practice questions matched the real exam in structure and difficulty, and the feedback explained why I got questions wrong (not just what). Being able to drill specific topics or switch to full-length exams made adapting my prep easy.”
Brock
