Hi! Do you have a list of common math formulas used in case interviews? I had a case recently where fair value was asked and I was just o_O. Hope you can help a mathematically-impaired person out!

Hi there,
The most common formulas you need to know in a consulting interview are:
Besides that, you should be familiar with simple and compound interests.

Hello!
Precisely for the high amount of questions (1) asked by my coachees and students and (2) present in this Q&A, I created the “Economic and Financial concepts for MBB interviews”, recently published in PrepLounge’s shop (https://www.preplounge.com/en/shop/prep-guide/economic_and_financial_concepts_for_mbb_interviews).
After +5 years of candidate coaching and university teaching, and after having seen hundreds of cases, I realized that the economic-related knowledge needed to master case interviews is not much, and not complex. However, you need to know where to focus! Hence, I created the guide that I wish I could have had, summarizing the most important economic and financial concepts needed to solve consulting cases, combining key concepts theorical reviews and a hands-on methodology with examples and ad-hoc practice cases.
It focuses on 4 core topics, divided in chapters (each of them ranked in scale of importance, to help you maximize your time in short preparations):
Feel free to PM me for disccount codes for the guide, and I hope it helps you rock your interviews!
