Excel, accounting, modeling and case interview practice

Many finance and analyst jobs now start with a test: an Excel assessment, a round of accounting questions, a timed modeling case or a consulting case. These career courses let you practise exactly that, with realistic tasks in an online spreadsheet that grades every answer and explains the classic traps, so the first time you see a question like it is not in the interview. Every course also explains why an answer is right, which is what interviewers ask next.

Excel Interview Test Practice has eight mini cases modelled on pre-employment Excel tests: lookups, SUMIFS and COUNTIFS, IF logic, percentages, text, dates and pivot-style summaries. Accounting Interview Practice drills journal entries, accruals, the depreciation walk-through, inventory, bank reconciliations, revenue recognition and ratios. Financial Modeling Test Prep covers three-statement walk-throughs, a quick build, a 15-minute DCF, a paper LBO, accretion/dilution and sensitivity tables. Consulting Case Interview Math works through eight mini cases: market sizing top-down and bottom-up, a profitability tree, break-even and payback, pricing, M&A synergies, mental math and reading an exhibit. The courses suit graduates, career changers, consulting applicants and experienced candidates who want to refresh before an assessment centre, a case interview or a technical interview.

Frequently asked questions

What is on a typical Excel interview test?

Most tests ask for lookups (VLOOKUP, XLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH), SUMIFS and COUNTIFS, IF logic, percentage changes, text clean-up, date calculations and a summary table. Excel Interview Test Practice has one case for each.

Are the practice tests timed?

The labs are not timed, so you can learn the method first. Once you can solve a case, set yourself a timer and solve it again from an empty sheet.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes. Each course ends with a final exam, and passing it gives you a verifiable certificate that you can link from your CV or LinkedIn profile.
