As someone who has completed several billion worth of PE deals I found the materials to be comprehensive, professionally done, and easy to follow along for someone with even a basic understanding of accounting, finance, and Excel. Each lesson builds upon the previous providing step by step instructions for how to build simple 3 statement models to much more complex multi-scenario models. The materials are also great for paper LBO and interview prep. Definitely worth the money.

one of the most complete finance career related program
If you have little or no experience in constructing LBO models, this is one of the most complete finance career related program that you can opt for. The instructor left no stones unturned in teaching the fundamentals of the LBO as well as many of the assumptions and details that goes into building an LBO model. This program with its theoretical knowledge along with its real life application will potentially level you up before you apply for you dream job. Thank you WSO! Always looking forward to learn more!

hands on approach to an LBO.
This was a very hands on approach to an LBO. Definitely worth it if you are planning to move to a PE role. I very much like the professional experience of the teacher and the way the course is paced is perfect for somebody who has no experience in LBOs to understand and learn all the necessary information and tips to impress your manager.

Extremely thorough treatment of LBO modeling
Extremely thorough treatment of LBO modeling (contains 120 lessons, none of the lessons are fluff). I like that they added some useful tips to keep in mind when creating an LBO model in Excel. Unfortunately I am not a finance professional so I can only review this on the basis of a casual learner who was curious about finance. I am not sure how applicable it would be to real world careers but I can definitely say this is a deep introduction for further studying, at the very least.

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.

Got me up to speed
As a new joiner to the PE space from strategy and audit, this course got me up to speed on all the considerations that go into modeling for LBOs. It was especially helpful due to the increased PE activity in the current market (low-interest rate, lots of distressed deals due to covid, etc). My boss was extremely happy that I hit the ground running. Thank you WSO team for making such useful courses! I've used their other courses before this and like always, I've never been disappointed.

Apart from the DCF, most IBs want you to know the LBO model. LBO valuation was in all of our proposals. This course helps you with understanding the landscape and the financial modeling side of things. Very good.

WallStreetOasis is the foundation to a successful career in high-finance

WSO has reinvented the ecosystem within finance in attaining the once out of reach careers for 99% of the population. Their courses and resume services are the bedrock for those that want to succeed within the industry, and position the hungry career go-getters with their best foot forward to out-preform within a highly competitive landscape of candidates.

Far from a gimmick, those that use the service are taken care of by the best professionals within the industry seeking to give back young professionals and provide the advice they wish they themselves had once recieved. The company goes above and beyond in supporting their customers from start-to-finish in their careers, and in every step in the navigation, of what is far from a strait-line, for its success.

I'd highly recommend the service to every college student, lateral, career changer, or those simply seeking to brush up prior to a job change. It is the grand equalizer for those looking to make a career move, and the best decision you can make for your professional growth.

The LBO modeling review was very effective and helpful - there are an abundance of videos to watch and take you through each step of designing an LBO. Think the one of the most beneficial pieces are the handful of case studies provided to practice after the course

you need to practice by yourself
I Chose the modelling course because everybody knows that you don’t learn excel at school, you need to practice by yourself. The course takes you step by step from the most bac financial statement construction to detailed DCF financial modelling. Even if you don’t know anything about excel everything is very clear. I was scared that I would lack some excel proficiency when I first started my M&A internship last September but thanks to this class I was even helping my intern peers when they were struggling and impressed the analysts and associates in charge of me. Moreover, being proficient in excel modelling helped me focus on other tasks and occasionally finish sooner in the evening

very straight forward and easy to follow!
The course is very straight forward and easy to follow! It will teach you how to construct your first LBO model and a process to be used when practicing different models. The instructor walks very thoroughly through each of the sections speaking to the implementation and background of an LBO model.

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.

Great product - simple and straightforward. Cut to the chase so that I got exactly what I needed for the interview and could practice. The results speak for themselves - I had never done a full LBO model previously but had to do one for my interview and ended up getting the job based primarily on the WSO PE interview course. Don't sell yourself short - spend a little bit of money on a course that could change the trajectory of your career.

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.

Consider this your first investment in a long career...

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

When you start your coveted finance job, you'll be making well over $200,000...

...over $350,000 if you have an MBA...

And that's just the beginning of a long and very lucrative career that could easily net you millions...

Even at thousands of dollars and your ROI would still be huge…

At a fraction of that price, the ROI is even better... When you do the math, it's a no brainer.
And that doesn't include the time you'd have to spend figuring all of this out and the hours of sleep these courses will save you.

Even if you used the free info online, you'd still have to find it, organize it, vet it and test it to get it to work. That would take months… and at that point, you may have missed your window.

The WSO Private Equity Interview Course gives you everything you need to be super-efficient and get ready for your Private Equity interview… quickly and easily.

But we're not going to charge you thousands...

We won't even ask for half of that...
