What should I do if I’ve never taken an accounting class?
Title is pretty self explanatory. I’m applying for 2021 junior internships in PE and IB . Can anyone whose been in a similar situation recommend some resources so I can handle technicals come interview season.

Breaking into wall street. I wasn't great at accounting prior to running through the course - it definitely helped a ton.
I found financial accounting as a college class very helpful, so if you could find a basic online course in financial accounting and you have the time, that might be worth looking into, if not the other suggestions work ^
Highly recommend this if you have free time right now. 80% of the accounting technicals aren't that hard to memorize but you will be better off if you understand the statements conceptually
Definitely recommend taking a few accounting courses in future semesters. I have no interest in pursuing accounting as a career, but for a finance career my accounting courses have been by far more helpful than my finance courses have been. Maybe I've been unlucky with finance professors, but in my opinion accounting has better prepared me.
