I particularly enjoyed my sessions with this mentor; I did an hour session that was broken up into two 30 minute sessions. He was happy to conduct the sessions this way which was meaningful to me because I was able to take his advice from the first…
Invaluable Resource for Aspiring Professionals

WSO Review
I have been user for a long time and I have loved the website a lot. Currently, there are some issues the platform faces
1. App is buggy, I think it'd be really cool to have a fully functional non buggy app as most of my browsing on wso is done through the app now
2. Spam and low quality content is a plague on the forum. "Prestige" and "Rankings" threads dilute the quality of the platform. There should be better moderation deployed as these kind of posts lower the quality of the website

Been on WSO for a decade and still going strong
I'm a veteran member of the WSO community (joined the forum in 2010) and have been active in various forms since then. I was previously a resume reviewer as well. WSO was integral in launching my career in the finance/consulting space, and even though I have since exited the industry, it continues to remain a fun place to hang out. 1 star off not for the fault of WSO so much as the population that makes up this industry; it is not always the most socio-politically correct and tends to use dark humor. This doesn't bother me at all, but I could see how it is not the most welcoming to all folks. Patrick (the CEO) and Andy (the COO) have steered this ship for over a decade and continue to remain engaged with the community, which is awesome.

Very helpful- but parts were missing…
Very helpful- but parts were missing and I feel the fundamentals could be taught without needing the models, so to have a more basic understanding of the concepts the numbers are describing and why they’re important for a model.

I learned much more than I learned in most of my college classes
I dont want to sound anything weird, but I finished the IB interview course, and learned much more than I learned in most of my college classes. It's like when you take the classes in school, they are all over the place, both in terms of information and level of information (beginner to advanced) and you have to piece them together to get the full picture, but the courses here are very well organized - I love their structure. Just wanted to say thank you guys for all the work

The WSO IB interview prep really helped me with my technicals and provided me with the knowledge to secure internships during my undergraduate.
