Hi everyone,
Hope everyone's having a good time. I was wondering if you guys knew about any good financial modeling courses that will teach me how to make a model from scratch. I'd actually like to learn stuff but at the same time have some decent resume value. The cheaper the better but the priority is a good learning outcome.
I'm a sophomore and I'm preparing for a SA role at any REPE shop and any course that'll help me with Excel & technical stuff.
Thanks!

Break Into CRE “RE Modeling Bootcamp”
Super cheap on Udemy
Before I put money in, does it actually teach me modeling from scratch. I'm a bit of a noob with financial modeling and it would help a ton if it was from the very start.
I took it over winter to prep for internships, etc. and found it super helpful. I had excel background / basic understanding of re terminolgiy but it really teaches you various models, functions, definitions, formatting, reasoning, etc.
Defiantly highly recommend. I got it for like 15 bucks on some sale as well so it won't break the bank
Breaking into Wall Streets course is excellent. Get REFM as part of my job, not nearly as good
As a college student is it actually worth the $500 price tag? It 's a relatively big investment
I would say it is worth it based on the amount of content yes (all properties, all transaction types, REIT analysis). BIWS, REFM, whatever will do the job of demonstrating industry interest for your resume. I can say though on the job (PERE 50 firm) BIWS has set my excel skills apart .
I was pretty advanced by the time I got to peruse REFM.. maybe i'm being too harsh. I do remember one of the lessons including VLOOKUP though. i mean jeez
Adventures in CRE Accelerator
Is it actually worth the $600?
Just started it this week. Will let you know when I’m done and start the new job. So far it’s very thorough and has a lot of detailed resources that I know I’ll reference later on
