I actually enjoyed Advisory, but I found it hard to know what a strong answer was supposed to look like. These notes helped a lot with that. They made topics like strategy, investment decisions, expansion and performance measurement feel more practical and easier to apply.
What helped me most was that the notes pushed me to think commercially. With Advisory, it is easy to stay too theoretical, but these made me focus more on the business angle and what the recommendation should actually be based on.
I liked these because they matched the way Advisory works as a paper. It is not just about knowing a topic, it is about using judgment. The notes really helped me get better at pulling together the financial, strategic and operational sides of a scenario.
