Tips

Hey! I am a sophomore at Brown University. Next semester I will start the application process to investment banking; however, I am an IR concentrator so I am still not into Investment Banking, any tip from where to start or which book to read to learn more ? Thanks!

There is so much information on this site, spend some time reading through it all. Read the All time popular content. In terms of books, Investment Banking by Pearl and Rosenbaum is considered to be one of the best, but there are also lots of posts about what books to read ect.
