The Retaker's Reality
The Devastation is Real
You put in weeks of studying. You walked out unsure. Then you saw "Fail" on your score report. The disappointment hits hard, especially when your job or career change depends on this license.
What Do You Do Differently?
More of the same clearly didn't work. But you don't know what went wrong. Your practice scores were good. The real exam felt completely different. Where do you even start?
The Pressure is Higher Now
Your employer is watching. The 30 day waiting period feels eternal. You can't afford to fail again. The anxiety is making it even harder to focus and study effectively.
The Cost Keeps Adding Up
Another $175 exam fee. More subscription fees for prep materials. Time off work. At what point does this investment stop making sense? You need to pass this time.
You're Not Alone. And You're Not Broken.
The Series 65 has a first-time pass rate under 70%. That means nearly one in three test takers fails their first attempt. Many of them are smart, capable people who studied hard. The problem isn't you. The problem is that traditional prep materials don't match what's actually on the exam.
How CertFuel Helps Retakers
Not more of the same. Something actually different.
Adaptive Quizzes Find Your Gaps
Adaptive quizzes continuously identify where you're struggling and focus your study time there. No more guessing what went wrong on your first attempt.
Exam-Weighted Content
Stop studying obscure topics that rarely appear. Our questions are weighted by how often concepts actually show up on the real Series 65.
Spaced Repetition
You forgot material between studying and test day. Our system resurfaces content right before you forget it. By exam day, everything sticks.
The Different Approach You Need
Adaptive quizzes learn from every answer and focus on exactly what you need. Combined with exam-weighted prioritization, you're always working on what matters most.
Exam Readiness Score
Don't guess when you're ready. Your score updates in real time based on your mastery across all topics. Test when you're actually prepared, not before.
Study Anywhere
Mobile-first design means you can squeeze in flashcards and practice questions whenever you have a few minutes. Make the most of your 30 day waiting period.
