financial analysis

As a finance professional, I feel like the content is very useful and applicable in day-to-day functions The instructor was very precise in his explanations of the various aspects of the Financial Analysis using Excel AMAZING Yes This is a better match than other courses I started.

I will definitely be referencing these videos as I go to do my own financial analysis sheets.

It's very informative and learn real financial analysis in excel.

Good course, but quite basic financial analysis examples in Excel.

Used various functions which is applicable to real world financial analysis.

It is a great introduction to financial analysis in excel for someone who never did this before.

This is course started out pretty slow, given that I wasn't starting from scratch with excel, but it's now building up and showing me new functions that I can use to make a more powerful financial analysis.

I have very little background in financial analysis or reporting, and Tim makes it very simple to understand; however, I'd like to hear a little more about why certain tools, functions, and practices are useful - such as with examples.

Tim often suggests that certain practices are useful for financial analysis, but it would be more helpful if he could offer an example along with those comments I have spent probably about 100 bucks on udemy courses and this is by far the only one I think is worth every cent of the full asking price.

Simple and to the point, but I thought it would teach me financial analysis, not tips for financial analysis modelling.

Great Course and very helpful information about how to use excel in financial analysis I already learn so much by just seeing the basic tools This course helped me enhance my Excel skills to another level.

simplified and great It is very useful for us, like who works in financial analysis and data analysis but it is not in details practice for depth knowledge.
