Coming from a tier 3 euro bank idk how I even got an interview at MF. This is round 1. It’s in 2 days and I’m totally unprepared. To save myself the embarrassment, should I cancel and remove myself from the process?

I was totally unprepared for my super day and super anxious wanting to cancel it. Needless to say, it went well.
Don’t overthink it and try to get as much knowledge in you head as possible. It might be not be as bad.
Don’t cancel, it is better to fail than not to show up.
Thx bro. Just the disbelief in even being considered at such a prestigious firm given my background is driving my desire to self select out
Appreciate the response
No absolutely. I just had my superday for an elite boutique given that my background is not what they would hire. My school is not even in top 200. I think it all really comes down to behavioral questions really.
Just practice basics like (like what is EV, WACC, CAPM formulas). Glance over LBO and DCF but they likely won’t even ask you that. Be prepared for behavioral more and know your whys ( why our firm, why IB, why this and that). Someone else mentioned it here many years ago and it really helped.
Absolutely not! And regardless of the outcome, the experience will be useful and will help prepare you for future interviews. You are going to feel nervous every interview, but that feeling gets better with more reps. Have fun, and take some pressure off yourself
