Tornado charts - a visual representation of the results
Presenting results - making the output presentation ready

By the end of this course, you will have a thorough grasp of how to build a robust sensitivity analysis system into your Excel financial model. Form and function are both critical to ensuring you can handle quick changes and information requests when you're working on a live transaction.

Fantabulously Good

by Kaushik Agarwal

The course is comprehensive and highly educational when it comes to learning material and undoubtedly is a Level 3 Course, given the difficuly in the direct and indirect parts. The time allotted to each activity could have been more. Overall, it's a great course.

Super

Hi Tim, This is what I always wanted to understand and showcase to my management and seniors. I love the way you link the variables in the indirect method and without actually chaining the inputs the probable results are there. Love from India...

Simple explanation of a more difficult topic

by George Link

The only suggestion I have is when you do the tornado topic the negatives and positives side can differ as it was in my working. Therefore maybe I would suggest instead of using ABS to separate positive and negative side calculation.
