Entering SA year at a MM bank this Summer. I’ve had a Mac for my entire life and I don’t know a single Excel/PPT shortcut on Windows.
How bad is this? Should I buy a Windows to practice? I’m terribly inefficient on Mac as it is.

Definitely need to practice
You can get a thinkpad for cheap if you really need to practice. Though if your internship is a week or two away its probably not worth it. Windows interface and ui is pretty different from mac so you need to for sure get practice
