Good practice questions
Honestly practicing questions helped me internalize concepts better than any lecture series. Once I got into the rhythm of answering and reviewing it clicked.

Plenty of technical questions to practice on in addition to non-finance questions related to business/sales that could potentially be asked. Provided helpful insight and comments after each question and shared a list of questions asked and additional resources after the session.

WSO was extremely valuable to me when I was in college and looking for a job on the sell-side. It was a little less useful to me when I was looking for a public equities buyside role- as the WSO community primarily revolves around IB/PE.

The resources/guides also very helpful.

Great course, very engaging and does not waste your time
This is an excellent course that combines excel training with financial statement modeling. Being in IB for 3 years, the fin model is where you get called out the most since it feeds the valuation tabs. Great course, very engaging and does not waste your time.

This is a great platform!
This is a great platform for one’s own personal and professional development. I like that I can come to this forum and ask questions I would not ask my colleagues regarding my career and important life decisions. Advice is always helpful and there are always funny responses.

Great Resource for Finance newcomers
Great resource for newcomers to finance or those looking to break into industry; definitely gave me a lot of information regarding interview prep. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get their foot in the door of a big wall street firm, or even just those who want to learn more about the finance industry.

I really enjoyed this course
I really enjoyed this course, the fact that it has videos which guided you through all of the tasks after you have attempted them yourself is really helpful. I thought the speed of the course material was adequate, I knew most of the early lessons but quickly found myself re-learning excel 'best practises' or new techniques which I did not know about.
