Best resource of IB technical questions?

An1 looking to lateral and currently prepping. What is the best resource of technical questions outside of the 400 guides (which i am exhausting).

Feels like questions are getting harder so a good resource of comprehensive questions would be great, thanks!

accounting valuation books seem very overkill for interview, but would be curious to hear what you have used for interview prep

 

def go for comprehensive understanding (acc/val textbooks) over more question guides

r&p if you have yet to read it youll know most of it but good to re-lay foundations

other standard IB books, if u have a group you are targeting maybe something in that

Honestly the best resource is right on this site - the interview 'reviews' in the WSO database. If you look at enough of those for the BB's and EB's you will get a very good sense of the types of questions actually asked and the derivations of the basis questions. Generally no one asks questions straight out of these guides any more - they test you on similar questions but with a twist that tests that you actually understand the concepts rather than just memorizing answers

try marginofalpha dot org. Used it when I was recruiting and def has the hardest technicals. Also tons of my superdays had the same questions that I previously saw/did using the platform
