Do the Wall Street preparation courses suggested on here teach you how to become an equity reserach analyst?

What all would I need to know? And which is best for an equity research analyst?

The 3 courses suggested on here are Wall Street Prep, Breaking Into Wall Street, and Wall Street Training.

yes they do to some extent, but if you expect them to teach you the actual processes that you would perform at a particular firm then no, that just varies too much... BIWS is my recommendation.. just read the descriptions on their sites, check their free videos, it is relatively straight forward, just like comparing the curriculum of any program

 

I have only used Wall Street Prep and it is a top notch program. I have learned so much from it.
