Get it for $4.99

Hi, I'm Jason Meinzer

I studied 150+ hours, did 900 practice questions, and was only able to pass the Securities Industry Essentials (SIE) exam after creating my one-page study guide. This site exists because of that.

Why this site exists

When I studied for the SIE, I kept flipping through textbooks to find things I'd half forgotten. So I boiled everything I needed down to one page. That page is what got me through the exam.

I've spent about 20 years in startup operations and finance. I'm not a prep company and I don't run a course.

How I make money

One way: my $4.99 study guide, sold through Gumroad. There are no affiliate links on this site. That's why the comparisons can be honest.

Not AI slop

No AI wrote this study guide. I did. I built it by hand, one concept at a time, across 150 hours of study and 900 practice questions. It was my source of truth for whether I was ready to pass, so I made sure it covered 100% of the practice exams I took.

It was my own go-to reference. I passed the SIE once I could explain every item on it.

The 3 steps

Do them in this order. Step 2 is the gate.

  1. 1

    Study 100+ hours with a prep course.

    No shortcut. Any of these works if you finish it. I used Achievable.

  2. 2

    The gate: get the sheet.

    Can't explain every item on it? Don't schedule the exam.

    ↩ Back to step 1
  3. 3

    Only then book the exam.

    Fail once or twice, you lose the $100 booking fee each time and wait a month to retake it. Fail 3 times, you wait 180 days.
