Is the Series 79 diagnostic quiz free?

How long is the Series 79 diagnostic quiz?
The diagnostic is 12 questions and takes about 5 to 10 minutes. You get instant feedback on each question, then a readiness score with a topic-by-topic breakdown at the end.
Does the Series 79 diagnostic predict whether I will pass?
It gives you a starting readiness estimate and shows your weakest topics. It is a benchmark to focus your studying, not a pass guarantee. The readiness score sharpens as you practice more of the free Series 79 question bank.
What is the difference between the diagnostic quiz and a full practice test?

About FreeFellow
Jeffrey Ting
FSA, CFA · Founder
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 35 finance credentials with more than 40,000 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.
