I went through roughly a dozen first rounds with MM and BB firms alike and ended up doing 2 different superdays and was asked very few technical questions that the guides didn't touch on. Big fan of the behavioral guide. Worth the money in the long run.

 

It's a drop in the bucket. Even if you knew 95% of all the materials covered, would you pay $50 for that 5%? Just imagine if you get one question from that 5%. You tell me if it's worth it.

 

they're good, i used the technical and behavioral one last year for the Canadian banks and they got me through all my first rounds, for super saturday ull need a bit more than just the guides though

I'm sure the WSO guide is great, but why would you ask about the quality of a WSO product on WSO? That's like going to a Apple store and asking people if iPads are awesome.

Im not asking the people that work here, I am asking people that use the site.

I know, but my point was that since this is a WSO 'community' no ones gonna come out and start giving negative reviews.
 

You would be surprised dude, people on here will bash shit if they think it sucks.

I have the WSO guides and the M&I stuff. Both are very good. Honestly, they walk you through the most common questions and give you logical and step by step answers. You could look around the internet, make a list and search out the answers or spend what amounts to a bar tab on a couple guides and be done with it.

$50 bucks is nothing in the grand scheme of things.

I recently purchased the technical guide, its very solid. Definitely worth the money, really helped for interviews. A few of the technical questions in the book were questions asked in an interview at BB. Also it is also very useful in helping you freshen up finance/accounting, valuations, etc etc.

can you send me the part about the dcf?
