Thx for your tips!

Practice practice practice on 3-statement modeling leading into a dcf / comps / precedent transactions

Comps = comparing similar companies in the market for specific trading multiples and using as a proxy for valuation

Precedent transactions = completed deals looking at what the trade multiples were for the deals and using that as a proxy for valuation

Hello everyone, currently I’m an analyst in a boutique life science strategy firm in Boston and wanting to break into IB.

I’ve been considering a MBA, but given the current COVID situation and not wanting to stop work for 2 years, would a part-time MBA be of any benefit to break into IB? Happy to discuss in DM. Thanks in advance!
