Sample Questions
Question 1
Easy
The antifraud provisions of the Uniform Securities Act apply to which of the following?
🎉
Correct Answer: A
Solution
A is correct. The antifraud provisions of the Uniform Securities Act apply to any offer or sale of a security in the state, regardless of whether the security is registered, exempt, or federal covered, and regardless of whether the transaction is exempt. Registration exemptions never exempt an issuer, agent, or broker-dealer from antifraud liability.
Question 2
Medium
All of the following are exempt transactions under the Uniform Securities Act EXCEPT:
🎉
Correct Answer: D
Solution
D is correct. Exempt transactions under the Act include unsolicited customer orders, fiduciary sales such as those by a trustee in bankruptcy, and transactions with institutional buyers like insurance companies. A solicited public offering of new shares to retail investors is a primary distribution by the issuer; it is the very activity state registration is designed to cover and therefore is not an exempt transaction.
Question 3
Hard
Under the Uniform Securities Act, all of the following are exempt securities that may be sold in a state without registration EXCEPT:
🎉
Correct Answer: C
Solution
C is correct. The USA grants an exempt-security status to insurance company securities only when the issuing insurer is organized under the laws of the United States and is authorized to do business in the state where the securities are offered. An insurer that has not been admitted to transact business in that state fails the statutory condition, so its stock does not qualify for the insurance-company exemption and would require registration absent some other basis. The remaining instruments satisfy their respective exemptions: municipal securities are exempt whether issued in-state or out-of-state, securities of banks are exempt, and securities of a foreign sovereign with which the United States maintains diplomatic relations are exempt.
FreeFellow was built by Jeffrey Ting, a credentialed actuary and CFA charterholder who passed thirteen of the hardest exams in finance on the first attempt, and paid four-figure prep fees for every one. The learning itself was always free. The price was a moat.
So he started writing his own questions, then lessons, then mock exams, until it grew into a full prep platform covering 40 finance credentials with more than 45,000 original practice questions. The name says exactly what it is: the question bank is free, and Fellow is what you become once you pass.
01
Cost shouldn't decide who gets in.
The exam is a fair gate. A four-figure prep course is not. FreeFellow takes the second gate down, so the exam is the only one left.
02
Free should mean free.
No trial clock, no email gate, no credit card. The question bank, worked solutions, lessons, and readiness score stay free, and they are enough to pass.
03
Built by someone who sat where you sit.
He paid for the big-name courses, found nothing he respected, and built the prep he wished had existed. Not a marketing team that has never sat an exam.
