At school? Just about every finance or MBA program that is semi-decent nowadays is having students practice valuation using either cooked or historical CIMs.
Nothing special man. 30-50 pages, charts, decent overview of the business and industry. I wouldn't be rushing to do tedious work, you will be doing it soon enough.
