Is it a good idea to learn excel modelling on a Mac? What's the standard for SA's during their summer. I want to be prepared for 2023 and wondering if I need to buy a PC to learn, or if I can just learn my Mac.

It’s not a big deal. When you first come in, they don’t expect you to know much of anything other than the basics so if you stick with a mac you won’t suffer significantly. That being said, if you want to be proactive and get ahead of the curve early, props to you- buy yourself a $200 old, used dell with an i5 and juice the returns on your practice (instead of having to relearn shortcuts, applications, etc.)
