Start with a question.
Stay for the reasoning.
The voice interview is on its way. In the meantime, put your technical fundamentals to the test with six free sample questions.
One question per core topic. No account needed.
Put your knowledge to work.
FREE PREVIEWVoice mode is coming with the full tutor.
Three financial statements
Depreciation increases by $10. The tax rate is 30%. What happens to cash?
Assume the depreciation is tax-deductible, the company pays cash taxes, and everything else stays constant.
Your turn.
Choose an answer to see the reasoning behind it.
The question you memorized is not the one they will ask.
Interviewers pull from the same few hundred technicals, then change the numbers, the tax rate, or the direction. A memorized answer breaks the moment one input moves. So we teach the mechanics once, then keep changing the inputs until you can do it cold.
The tutor grades your reasoning against the key points, not your wording. Early access opens with the voice interviewer.
Get early accessDepreciation goes up by $10 and the tax rate is 40%. Walk me through the three statements.
D&A rises $25 on a 21% rate, but the company is sitting on net operating losses. What happens to cash?
Your model just took a $40 impairment. Why did cash move at all?
Same accounting underneath. If you learned the mechanics, all three are the same question.

a stronger one.
Voice interviews with different personalities are in development. Join the list and we’ll let you know when they’re ready.
A few things
to know.
Can I start practicing now?
Yes. The homepage has six free sample questions with explanations, one per topic. The full tutor, including voice interviews, interviewer personalities, and feedback on your own answers, is still in development.
Can I choose my interviewer’s personality?
That’s the idea behind the voice experience we’re building. The hero previews three styles: a patient analyst, a probing associate, and a direct managing director. Each will bring a different voice and interviewing style. These are simulated interviewers, not recordings of real bankers.
Who is this for?
Candidates preparing for investment banking technical interviews: summer analysts, MBA associates, and lateral hires. Start with the samples to check your fundamentals.
Is this a financial modeling course?
The focus is technical interview practice: explaining concepts, working through numbers, and answering follow-ups. It can complement your coursework and financial modeling preparation.
