Prior to this session, students will be asked to purchase an online module that walks them through how to convert their excel model into a simple, clear yet compelling PowerPoint presentation. Once again, student volunteers will be asked to present their analysis. We will then conduct our FINAL practice case interview as well as leave some time to answer any final questions you may have.
