Hi Community, 

Wanted your views on whether Case coach subscription is worth it. I was planning to take it ($122) a steep price tag though for me coming from a developing geography (India) but if anybody wants to share that will be awesome.

Hi there,

Ultimately it's your call - when you think about the “reward” of an MBB or Tier 2 offer, most investments (including coaching) are worth it.

With a potential salary of $100k, even a 5% improvement in your odds is an expected value of 5,000 dollars….

Hello!

I think there are two things here: 

  • is it worth it to pay for materials? For sure it is, since at the end, they increase your chances by a lot, and it´s not too much money if you put it into perspective
  • Is the case coach subscription the right material? That depends on each person and what they are looking for. I would advise you to do some research about alternatives

Hope it helps!

Cheers, 

Clara

Their case library is excellent.  It’s not a prerequisite but if you are struggling to find more McKinsey style cases to practice then it could be worth the investment.

Hey - I understand that it is quite costly given that the currency is not in your favour. However, there is definitely value in the subscription. As Ian said, think about the outcome you are hoping to get out of it and what the ROI would be if you got to the outcome.
