[QUOTE="ashwright, post: 183094, member: 29878"] Hi [USER=36759]@Kay Aston[/USER] ! Firstly - thank you so, so much for this super helpful and detailed response!! You guys are genuinely the best - I have been so lucky to be able to hear from you and [USER=36740]@Amma Usman[/USER] 🫶 i really appreciate your kindness - again, thank you so much!! Thank you so much for your recommendation of Jake Schogger's book - I will add that to the top of my list along with the Coggan. A Notion page for commercial awareness sounds really practical and tidy way of keeping things organised! I have been using the TCLA application tracker on Notion so I will create a Commercial Awareness page too! 😊 I'd greatly appreciate if I could ask a quick follow-up question 😊 You mentioned that some practical things to learn about would include things like: I'm currently reading a Christopher Stoakes book entitled 'All You Need to Know about the City'. Whilst it's touched on some of the above, it's missing some detail on how M&A deals work, document drafting and especially the last point on the legal teams. Would the two books you and [USER=36740]@Amma Usman[/USER] recommended cover that material? I'm a bit worried because I've been going quite slowly through the Stoakes book since there's a lot of nitty-bitty stuff that I wasn't really familiar with, yet I worry it's maybe surface level/not enough to pass an AC.. Hopefully a combo of the three books + podcasts/current affairs stuff + mock ACs will be enough o_O [/QUOTE]
