Retake Wait Periods

After the first or second time a candidate fails the Series 82 exam, there is a mandatory 30 day waiting period before they can take the exam again. After the third (and subsequent) fails, the waiting period increases to 6 months. The $100 exam fee applies each time they take the exam.

What’s Next

After passing the Series 82 exam, the Series 24 exam, which licenses you as a General Securities Principal, would allow you to supervise a broader range of securities transactions, beyond just private placements. For those interested in investment banking, the Series 79 exam could be a suitable next step. If your interests lie in municipal securities, the Series 52 or Series 53 exams would be beneficial.
