Hey,

For the ones that bought the Breaking into Wall Street Financial Modeling Training package, what are you guys thinking about it so far??!?

Good content?? Or it is only good marketing??

Some friends saying it is way too basic and were expecting more...
Any thoughts??

I bought the program this Monday when it launched and I've been very impressed with it so far. For what I paid ($147), the program includes everything you could possibly need for summer and fall recruitment interviews. The material is straightforward and covers a wide range of topics (from accounting fundamentals to basic LBO modeling). The program may be too basic for someone with experience in IB already, but its target audience is clearly undergrads and non-industry professionals looking to make the jump to banking. At this price point, compared to everything else out there, I highly recommend it.

To respond to your concerns: it shows you how to create projections, valuations, and merger/LBO models from the ground up.

As I said in everything leading up to this, it is not for you if you already know how to do all that. If you can already create all those models starting from nothing, then it's not for you. There's a full outline to exactly what is covered in the links listed above.

There will be additional content, case studies etc. added over time as I've already received some really good ideas/requests.

If you're not happy, I do provide the money-back guarantee as I do with everything else offered on the site.

I haven't had the chance to go through everything, but I am certainly happy with it. For the money (147) it is way better than any other financial modeling training you can get.

And yes, I've discounted the price for the first week to reward anyone who signs up early. That goes away on Friday.

Following this first week (launch phase), we'll be adding additional content and raising the price over time.
