Title. I have my first and probably only Superday next week for IB SA. I don't know one technical, but have solid behavioral prep done already. Is it possible to learn everything for the interview in one week?
If so, how???? What should I look at first?

Not everything but if you have a lot of time between now and then, you can do it. Focus on the typical questions and download a guide.
You can try, but you’ll likely get hit with a question or concept you haven’t seen yet. You may get lucky and not have an overly technical interview
What bank? I can source recent lead deals that closed / are in market. This week, the market is red hot. Send job description. I have materials to help with concepts related to the actual ROLE-- that aren't covered in these commoditized study guides w/ the D&A question and accounting questions...
who tf are you
Who am i? I'm a guy that's helped a ton of ppl on this forum prep for interviews, learn new concepts related to the life cycle of a deal and the role, and set them up for success. Followed up post-interview to check in - they've been appreciative. Had a kid tell me last night that he learned more in a 20 min phone call w/ me, then in his 3 years in college. Feedback like that energizes me to help the next kid. And who are you? Here you are entering the chat with negative energy, de-motivating me to put myself out there.
I learned 70% of what I needed the week of my SA superday. Know your story, your why XYZ, the 400 q's inside and out, then just look up specifics about that firms interview (some ask about current events or a pitch, some do brain teasers). This can reasonably be done if you actually or your head down and study for 3-4 days
I did this, too. Grinded for about two weeks ahead of the superday. Got the offer regardless.
