Just be careful to use casebooks most relevant to the style in which your target consulting firms use e.g., For McKinsey, all cases are interviewer-led and not interviewee-led.


Once you’ve found your casebooks, you are at the very start of the journey. They will only be as useful to you as the mindset with which you use them, and in what setting (e.g., personal reading vs interview condition prep)


My 3 top advice for casebooks:

1. Use what is relevant to your target company
2. Do not take answers as a memorandum, but rather as a guideline. No need to memorise when you understand the guiding principles
3. Use them under interview conditions, both as an interviewer and interviewee during your prep


Happy if you book a free 15min intro for next Monday, and I’ll give you my pre-prep toolkit

Hi there,

There are several cases here at the Platform (see the Resources tab) and you can find casebooks from several Universities online.

Feel free to DM me if you would like for me to share some casebooks with you.

Hi there,

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your question:

  • In addition to PrepLounge's Case Library, I would advise you to work with business school case books. The ones I like are: Columbia, Darden, Esade, Fuqua, Kellog, LBS, McCombs, Michigan, Ross, Sloan, and especially Yale.

You can find more on this topic here: How to succeed in the final interview round.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare your application files, for your upcoming pre-interview assessments and/or interviews, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

In addition to what Mariana shared, most consulting firms have some examples in their website, and there are a lot of great Youtube channels where you can view how experts solve different cases.

As other coaches have said, there are lots of cases available on PrepLounge.

Another great resource is MBA consulting club casebook (e.g., Yale, Kellogg, HBS etc)

Hi there, 

Check the 'case library' here on PrepLounge.

Check via google for case books. Lots of them, especially older ones, are available for free to download. 

Check youtube for case simulations. Lots of those there as well.

Best,
Cristian
