Too Dumb For Banking??
Sophomore at a non-target with mid GPA and decent resume. Currently trying to put a DCF together for an interview process. First time I have gone through and done a DCF from a 10K / public data. Decided to pursue banking over the summer (ie I was late to the game) and have been working towards it since (networking, studying technical concepts ect.). I am struggling to put the DCF together, I got down to a valuation but it seems really high. Do other sophomores just know how to do this?
I am not a quitter and I am determined to get an offer, but man I just feel behind everyone else.
Better to watch someone put one together a few times and follow along - recommend rareliquid on YouTube. Good luck

Most bankers are too dumb for banking - you will be fine
Most people in banking were the type who test well, or went on one of those websites that show what all the easy A classes are at your school, but don't have a lot of common sense. You'll be just fine.
This is actually so true. unfortunately I found out to late. Still landed some nice internships tho
look on the good side, you'll never need to care about tech vs. finance debates
Yeah because you need to be a genius to be in tech…
Woah woah, slow your roll there on the genius talk buddy….have you ever heard of SAAS Sales. 😂😂😂
Maybe your calling lies on the financing side of banking.
it’s all practice and pattern recognition
most sophomores i know pursuing banking don’t know what alt wvg does, much less know how to put together a dcf. you’re fine
