Please please please take an excel course. You will learn to make good pages on the job (and you can’t really prep in advance because firms have custom macros and shortcuts), but excel is the same everywhere. Have been appalled by how many really smart consultants can’t use excel to save their lives, and it is often poorly taught (if at all) in training at many firms
