How many hours a day/week did you study in preparation? How much experience did you have prior to sitting for it? Thanks gentlemen...

The body of knowledge is fairly extensive, so after taking the course (I used the college for financial planning) I probably spent 5-10 hrs per week leading up to the exam. I was also working as a financial advisor for about 4 years before taking the exam so I had a decent amount of "on the job" studying under my belt.

The biggest thing for me was remembering all of the different rules associated with financial products we were not using in our business. Good luck!
