Thank you!! :)
Not to be a shill for Patrick, but the Breaking Into Wall Street "Excellence With Excel" course was fantastic for me. (And, at $99, incredibly priced compared to the other $299 courses.) The videos were good, but the printouts and guides were huge, as were the "after" excel files. I keep the Quick Reference Guide and the Keyboard Shortcut Guide by my desk.
Start by learning these: http://www.wallst-training.com/resources/WST_Excel_Shortcuts.pdf
Then force yourself to stop using a mouse. You will be unbearably slow at first, but if you actually force yourself to only do things by shortcut then you will pick up speed and muscle memory over time.
Agreed with CRE, pick up a few tricks in BIWS. Learn what you use most via google. Also knowing vba (how to code) helped me a lot during my internship.
Thank you so much guys!
Take away the mouse.
this is pretty decent to get you started: https://www.wallstreetprep.com/excelshortcuts/
As said above, use all those shortcuts wihout a mouse. You'll be slow the first day, then you'll start remembering each shortcut - until it becomes second nature to use them. If youre dragging a formula (ctrl d or ctrl r) copy them and then use alt esv so you can find the values later on if you need to (Ctrl F). Also, remember that when you press ctrl anad an arrow, it takes you until the last number on that row / column, which makes itt a lot faster than keeping an arrow pressed for about 20 seconds.
I was impressed by Wall Street Prep's excel crash course.
I'm not exaggerating when I say that it would have saved me an hour or two a day when I was an operations officer in the Army.
