New PE Cases + 20min LBO Drills Added to the PE Interview Course

Just a quick update:  thanks to the WSO community (+1 for crowdsourcing), we have received a TON of new LBO modeling tests and private equity cases in the past few months.

We continue to review, edit,  and include these new LBO modeling tests and private equity cases (typically a few new ones each month) to the WSO PE Interview Course to make sure we are giving all of you a ton of awesome prep material.   

Surprisingly, the global pandemic has actually slowed down PE recruiting this year but I am sure now that we are in the new year, we can't be that far away, so make sure you give yourself enough time to prep!
