The exercises were like any other course I had taken. They were making me think and truly focused to test the understanding of the individual.
Really learnt a lot from Excel shortcuts and model building perspectives.
It was indeed an enjoyable learning experience.
I'm an Econ major student, so I've never been taught how to properly do a model, and WSO's modeling course not only prepped me for modeling but also taught me a lot of tips and tricks that have saved me so much time while building up models. Also, it helped me to ace all my technical interviews.
For those who thinking about getting this course, do it now! You won't regret!
I am not sure how it compares to other LBO courses in terms of value for money (if there are even other LBO online courses out there), but I do want to emphasize that it is an extremely dense course compared to most other online/MOOC courses so the price (probably) scales accordingly compared to standard online course prices from other services.
I've been hailed by my boss and colleagues at work, trident insurance co.ltd finance department,I used the knowledge also in PowerPoint and word ,these hotkeys apply almost in ppt,word and excel. I've been so efficient yet I'm still in campus.
A local leather turning firm also gave me a role in finance and accounting and it's been a lovely experience, I've actually recoup the money I paid wall street oasis for the course and in fact I got a massive discount, Patrick didn't sell it to me$497 dollars if I remember. The PowerPoint course could improved though,it only gives tricks but does not teach one how to actually create a full presentation or pitchbook. I'm sorry that I have to write my review away from home, I saw the email from Patrick and had planned to do this at home unfortunately my schedule with university,exams have Started and work reasons left me with no time,so seeing the second email I had to pull over and give at least something back by the roadside. If one is keen on a career in finance WSO is the place, it's worth it and the discussion section will broaden your commercial awareness. Thank you WSO.
Finally you'll get to the modeling, and you'll cover that in reasonable depth to understand what you're doing.
The course is well laid out with exams at the end of every module. The files you keep from this are a great future reference if you ever forget how exactly to do something. One last thing that I found excellent: the instructor is not just an Excel instructor, but also clearly works in finance. This shows up in additional tips throughout the course on best practices and how best to present your models.
The theory explanation is straight to the point and clear. I could understand all the concepts to build a complex financial modeling.
Currently I'm working at a M&A company in Brazil, and what I've learnt in this course is very useful for my daily tasks.
I do recommend this course.
The teacher explain complex topics in a simple way.

There are questions at the end of each section that could be improved upon, but it's a modeling course not exam prep so it is understanable.
Overall, I would recommend this course to someone interested in learning LBOs.
When I first took this course, it did not have as many lessons as it currently does -- so, in fact, it actually covers a little more than what I had gone through in my accounting class. The additional topics are more focused for finance interview questions and finance-oriented careers. I do not think most other courses cover these additional topics, not as far as I have seen. For those who have already completed similar coursework, perhaps this course may still be of value to you.
And to end, I will say this course's pricing is pretty competitive to the standard price of online courses out there through other MOOC services.
The only complaint I have is that the quizzes sometimes have ambiguous questions/answers and the function to show correct answers wasn't working prope…
The only complaint I have is that the quizzes sometimes have ambiguous questions/answers and the function to show correct answers wasn't working properly at the time.
I've done Excel courses before like this but with no practice, so only little of what I learned actually stuck. Practice makes perfect so I'm gonna head back to that :D
A solid use of time and great value for money - especially if purchased within the bundles.
However, despite this being of second nature to me, I decided to check out the WSO financial statement modeling course as part of the Elite Modeling package while planning my move to investment advisory. Needless to say, like the other WSO courses, this was a well-planned out course from which even a seasoned professional like me could take away a lot. Knowing various standards that are used in the finance and investment community helps to blend in with the pros.
Would definitely recommend getting not just this but the whole elite modeling package if that's still on offer. Thanks WSO team! :)
Received this as part of a bundle (fantastic value, I might add), and this was the perfect walk through for someone that knows theoretically what an LBO is, but wants a nuts and bolts perspective. Very accessible and quickly brings you up to speed. A very high yield course.

After all, you've likely already spent tens of thousands of dollars on college (and perhaps tens of thousands more on an MBA)...
