Recorded rounds

First Round or Superday?

All 61 prompts have a recorded round and an IB group label. I would start with the round on my calendar, then mix the sets to test the gaps. These are firm-labeled practice prompts, not a promised question list.

26

First Round

26 prompts carry this label. Filter the round column to work that set.

35

Superday

35 prompts carry this label. Work the reasoning out loud so you can handle a follow-up.

IB

One recorded group

Every prompt is labeled IB. There are no separate group-specific banks in this file.

Technical coverage

Valuation is the largest part of this bank.

25 prompts cover DCF & WACC. Another 6 cover valuation & multiples. These are topic counts; the full file has 55 worked answers across all topics.

31 prompts

DCF and multiples

Practice the assumptions behind the valuation, not just the formula. The free drill opens 5 Gordon Dyal questions, including DCF sensitivity, depreciation and cash-flow timing.

11 prompts

M&A

Filter to the M&A topic to work the deal questions. Keep your answer separate from the guide until you finish.

5 prompts

Math and brain teasers

Say how you get to the result. A correct number without the reasoning is harder to defend.

The remaining prompts cover EV & equity value, accounting, markets, debt and LBOs, along with 4 behavioral prompts for your own stories. The file is an editable Excel download, yours to keep.

Answer labels

Does every Gordon Dyal & Co. interview use the same process?

No. Office, group, role and cycle can change the sequence. The workbook preserves observed round labels and leaves missing metadata Unspecified.
