Best way to Prepare

Hey guys, I'm a rising junior and a Statistics major from a target school. i'm interested in doing IB as a career path. I wanted to ask you guys which guides are the best to read and essentially what is the most efficient way to prepare given my first super day is in about 2 weeks. I have no finance background. Thanks in advance

First off, continue to network. Don't put all your eggs in one basket with this upcoming superday.

To answer your actual question, I suggest searching previous threads on WSO about preparing for IB interviews. Even now, people will say that you should get a hold of the WSO technical guide and the 400 Questions guide. If you don't understand what a certain word means or how a certain concept works in those guides, then google it. Also, focus on really understanding what the answers to the questions are rather than just memorizing them. For all of the EBs, they will not just ask questions directly from these guides. They will ask questions that will test your understanding of the concepts behind the questions you memorized.
