Hello, I'm currently in an FDD role for about a year and I'm looking to search for an M&A role in the near future. The problem is I don't have a lot of exposure in valuation/ modelling (even though I was told I could get some, our deals department is not big). I'm looking for material (books/sites etc) that would help me in real life and on the job not just academically. Are there any suggestions?

Note: I'm based in Europe

Weighing whether another year of IB experience would be helpful, or would just make me one year older at the same starting point in PE.
