Hello!

+80 cases should already mean deep knowledge and understanding of methodologies, types and industries. Well done for getting there!

To your points.

• I would only do 2-3 new cases weekly moving forward
• It is really important that you review the most significant ones you have done in the past, particularly the key learnings
• Try to make cases with other people and not yourself. You will always learn by watching the others and get (hopefully) good feedback
• Consider working with a coach for the final touches, since all the individual-work you have done already

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Clara

Hi Anonymous,

After 80+ cases I would even have expected that marginal improvements are rather small and from my perspective no need to worry at all - the learning curve is always much steeper at the beginning!

In your situation I rather see doing 2-3 cases a week just to stay "fit" and keep yourself engaged in the case interview world, and that's perfectly fine and a frequency which I also recommend to keep.

Hope that helps - if so, please give it a thumbs-up with the green upvote button below!

Dear Anonymous,

here's my advice from my personal experience when I was preparing for McKinsey:

1) Once you have done many cases (like you did), it's better to put time in reviewing the cases you've done already and understanding what it could be done differently (you may use Victor Chang books and audio recording to check which are the common mistakes candidates usually make)

2) New cases could be done less frequently (2/3 a week) and always with someone interviewing you that can give you feedback. If you do many cases you end up answering all cases with the same framework approach and you get less and less able to think out-of-the-box.

Hope it helps! :)

It's a good amount of work. I would focus now on what you learned from them, refining the structures and only adding few other good cases.

Hi there,

I agree with Giulia, it makes sense to invest some time in reviewing the cases you have done so far rather than doing completely new ones at your stage. Hopefully you have a “failure” spreadsheet where you wrote the main mistakes you did and for which case, that would be a good place to start.

In terms of cases, I agree with the other comments that 2-3 per week would be enough at this stage.

Best,

Francesco
