How to Complete Individual Lessons
We recommend using the B.A.S.E.S. methodto complete the Lessons:
Before:Review the Before Excel (or other) file, including any backgroundinformation and required assumptions.
After:Then, check the After Excel (or other) file, and focus on how itsdifferentfrom the Before file.
Study:Once youre reviewed both files, watch the entire video through to theend and pay attention to both the whyand the howof what we do in Excel (or
PowerPoint) to turn the file into the After version.You can also review the
transcript(s) and quick reference guide(s) included in the lesson, if applicable.
Execute:Then, try it yourself by practicing with the Before file and replicatingthe steps so that it looks like the After file when youre done.

Scrutinize:When you finish, confirm that its the same.If its NOTthe same, youcan review the video again, look at the existing comments left by other BIWS
members, or leave a question on the site or via email if you get completely stuck.
You can also review the transcript(s) and quick reference guide(s) and see if
those point you in the right direction.
Heres an example (from the Excel course) of how you might apply this strategy to
complete individual Lessons:
Before: Review the Before File, Notes, and Assumptions
-

11/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 11
After going to the Lesson, open the Before file and the supplementary resources
(transcripts, quick reference guides, and other documents) under Files & Resources:
-
5/25/2018 BIWS Quick Start Guide
12/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 12
Now, review the Excel file itself:
-
5/25/2018 BIWS Quick Start Guide
13/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 13
In this case, youd note the data displayedin all the columns and how the address data
is very poorly formatted. The point of this lesson is to fix the formattingforthat data, so
you should start thinking about how you might do that.
After: Review the Completed After File
Now, go back to the Lesson page and click on Files & Resources again and bring up
the After file:
-
5/25/2018 BIWS Quick Start Guide
14/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 14
Heres the file:
Note the key difference:the address data is now formatted properly and is much easier
to read.

15/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 15
In the more advanced Lessons, there will be many differences in the After file, but
this gives you a flavor of what to expect.
Study: Watch the Video
There isnt much to say about this part simply watch the video, follow along, and if
the screen size is too small for you, go to View Larger Video linked to under Video
Formats in each Lesson instead.
You can also speed upthe video by playing it at 1.5x speed or 2.0x speed via the
buttons beneath the video on each page:
-
5/25/2018 BIWS Quick Start Guide
16/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 16
Normal speed is appropriate if you want to absorb the material at a manageable pace.
1.5x speed is good for skimming or faster learning of the material, and 2.0x speed is
perfect for when you want to quickly review a video youve already watched.
Execute: Practice Yourself, Starting with the Before File
Now, start with the Before Excel file and replicate all the steps in the video.
Youre aiming to make your own Excel file resemble the After file youve already
examined.
Scrutinize: Confirm That Your Finished File is the Same as the After File
-
5/25/2018 BIWS Quick Start Guide
17/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 17
Do a side-by-side comparison between your own completed file and the After file on
the site and verify that they are the same:
Theyre the same in this case, so were done. This process is more time-consuming in
the more advanced Lessons, but the steps are the same.
What If Your File Doesnt Match Up With the After File in the Lesson?
First, you can watch the video again and skip to the parts that you may not have
understood 100% the first time around:
You can also review the Comments posted on each Lesson page, because these often
contain answers to the most common questions:
-

http://breakingintowallstreet.com 18
And if you cant find what youre looking for there, you can always leave a comment on
the Lesson with your question (youll receive a response within 1 business day, and
often faster than that):

Finally, you can click the Contact link in the top menu of every page on the site and
submit your question via email instead:
You are better off leaving a comment directly on the sitebecause you will receive a
faster response that way.

How to Ask Questions, Take Notes, and Track
Your Progress
Besides just completing the lessons and the Excel exercises on the site, it is criticalto ask
questions, take notes on key topics, and track your progress over time or youll forget
much of what youve learned.
This section of the guide explains how you can ask questions and receive answers, and
how you can track which lessons youve completed and the notes youve taken.

http://breakingintowallstreet.com 20
How to Ask Questions and Receive Answers
You have 2 options for asking questions: 1) On the site itself; and 2) Via email.
We would strongly recommend asking your questions directly below each Lesson,
because youll receive faster responsesthat way.
If you have a private question that you cant share or you have account access trouble,
then youll have to use email and once againgo through the Contactlink displayed at
the top of each page on the site.
Heres how to ask questions on the site in a specific Lesson:
Once you enter your question or comment, it will appear below all the existing
questions and comments on the Lesson.
Then, you will receive a response within the site and email notification within 24 hours.
BONUS TIP:You should also review the dozens / hundreds of existing questions and
answers for all the Lessons. Theres a treasure trove of previous Q&As from studentswho have used the site to win job offers, so we strongly recommend reading as many of
these questions and answers as you can.
You can also review all yourprevious comments and navigate to our responses by
clicking on the All My Comments link on the right-hand side of each page on the site:

How to Take Notes and Track Your Progress
For Courses with dozens or hundreds of Lessons, its really important to track your
progressto remember where you are and which Lessons you have yet to complete.
Taking noteson each Lesson is also a big help because we cover a lot of material in the
videos and the quick reference guides cant possibly show you every nuance.

Downloading the files can be helpful if you have a slow Internet connection or youll be
without Internet access for a while, but we recommend completing the Lessons onthe
site as much as possiblefor several reasons:
1. The Comments under each Lesson video are extremely valuable, and you wontbe able to view them if youre using only the downloaded video files.
2. You also wont be able to track your progress or enter your own Notes.3. Finally, you wont be able to ask questions and receive answers as easily, or refer
to all the supplementary materials for Lessons.

How to Take Quizzes, Get Certifications, and List
the Courses on Your Resume
Quizzes and certifications allow you to test your knowledge, review what youve
learned, and make sure that youre remembering everything as you progress.
They are NOTyet available for all courses on the site (our long-term goal is to introduce
practice quizzes and certification quizzes for all the courses).
You will receive free access to these features if you sign up for a course and we then
add practice quizzes and/or certification quizzes for that course.
How to Take Practice Quizzes and Review Your Quiz Results
You can navigate to Practice Quizzes by clicking on the quiz links within each
module, or by going to the quiz modules within certain courses:
-
5/25/2018 BIWS Quick Start Guide
38/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 38
You can then take the quiz:
Each question is displayed on a single page and you press Next to advance to the
next question; on some quizzes, the questions are grouped by category and each page
shows all the questions in one category.
Your progress is saved automatically as you advance through the questions, but you
can also click the Save Quiz button to save your answers manually.
You can also reset all your previously saved answers by clicking the Reset Answer
Choices button at the top of the quiz page shown above.
Once you reach the end of a Practice Quiz, youll be able to see your score, the number
of questions you answered correctly, your responses, and the correct answers and
explanations for all the questions:

Then, you can select the specific Course Quizzes you want to view from within the
drop-down menu on the page:
Next, you can click on individual quiz attempts to view your scores, your answers, and
the correct answers with explanations.
Youll see a summary of the total number of questions you answered incorrectly at the
top of the page, with all the questions, answer choices, and explanations below that:

A few notes on these quiz features:
1. As mentioned above, we do NOThave Practice Quizzes for all the courses yet.We are aiming to add them to everything over the long-term.
2. While you can view both your correct and incorrect answer choices on thePractice Quizzes, as well as the full explanations for all the questions, you can
only view your incorrect answerson the Certification Quizzes (it would bemeaningless to award you a certification if you know all the answers in advance).
3. Your score is based on TOTAL POINTS RECEIVEDnot the number ofquestions you answer correctly. Therefore, if you get 90 out of 100 questions
correct but only score 100 out of 120 points (since some questions have multiple
correct answers), thats a score of 83%, not 90%.
4. You can take the quizzes an unlimited number of times until you pass.

How to Get Course Certifications
The certification available for each course requires you to earn a score of at least 90% on
a rigorous examination. The Certification Quiz is available in the last Module of many
of our courses:
Once you click the Module, you will arrive on a page similar to the one shown below:
-
5/25/2018 BIWS Quick Start Guide
44/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 44
Now you can begin answering all the quiz questions:
The Certification Quizzes work the same way as the Practice Quizzes: your progress is
saved automatically and you can always return to complete a partially completed quiz
later on. Or you can come back to the quiz and reset all your answer choices.
However, Certification Quizzes have multiple questions grouped by category on the
same page, and the quizzes themselves are much longer and more in-depth.
-
5/25/2018 BIWS Quick Start Guide
45/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 45
Once you complete the quiz, youll see a report at the end with the number of questions
you answered correctly and the total number of points you earned:
In this case, we answered 0 questions so we earned 0 points on the quiz and did NOT
receive a certification.
To get the certification, youll have to score over 90%by POINTS. Some questions have
multiple correct answers, so one question could be worth anywhere from 1 point to 3
points.
In the quiz shown above, for example, you would need to earn at least 227 / 253 points
to receive the certification, since 227 / 253 = 89.7%, which we round up to 90%.

46/54
Breaking Into Wall StreetQuick Start Guide Site Functionality and Course Access
http://breakingintowallstreet.com 46
Even if you answered 175 / 195 questions (also 90%) correctly, you might NOTreceive
the certification because your score is based on points earned, not # of correct answers.
Completed quizzes will appear on the My Quizzes page (access via the Courses page
or My BIWS page), where you can review the questions you answered incorrectly and
view and print out your certificates:
When you view the individual quiz results, youll get a summary of your performance
at the top and youll see the questions that you answered incorrectly:
