Best way to practice financial modeling
Just had a crushing technical interview and I'm looking to get as much practice as possible. I have a WSP course sponsored by my alma mater and ASM sponsored by me, but I'd like some additional ways to practice financial modeling so I can get as much exposure as possible. I was particularly tripped up with debt, something my courses didn't cover as in depth as was needed.
I majored in mathematics but do not have a finance background, and I don't want to get another rejection.
Best way is to pull recent filings and do the modeling yourself. You can easily find templates through WSP as you mentioned. Prob the best way to learn tbh
Is this the shit that you people do? Play investment banker and build statements in your own free time? I was recently in New York and let me tell you my American counterparts severely lacked personality or the ability to talk about anything beyond finance - and given things like this, I am not particularly shocked.
Well what the hell else are we supposed to do ? Play GTA 6 lol
Just start doing a model, what you realize very quickly is, it's actually pretty dumb and easy.
Go onto SEC Edgar > Recent Filings > Enter a business that you understand into search bar > go to interactive data > view excel > download the excel > build out models.
That’s my advice, going through the motions of building a three statement then valuing the firm based on that is the best way to learn and to remember it
