Wall Street Prep review

Wall Street Prep teaches finance the way an investment bank trains its new analysts. The Premium Package walks through 3-statement modeling, DCF, trading comps, M&A and LBO models, using a case study format where you build each model from real SEC filings and research reports alongside Excel templates. Wall Street Prep says to expect about 70 to 90 hours of work. Passing the final exam in each of the 6 courses earns its Financial & Valuation Modeling Certification, and you can sit those exams any time after enrolling. Questions go to an Online Support Center staffed by former investment bankers, and private video tutoring is available for $800 an hour. The package costs $499 as a one-time payment, and 7 free Quicklesson videos let you check the teaching before you pay. It goes deeper on deal modeling than any subscription here, but it is narrow: learners who want markets theory, personal finance or accounting basics will get more from Coursera, edX or Khan Academy.
