Hello!

Fist of all, cover the theoretial part -that goes very fast, just to have an overview- with Cosentino and/or Cheng.

Then, and most important, prep prep prep! Doing many cases is the best way to crack them asap.

Hope it helps!

Good luck,

Clara

Hello there,

You can find a lot of material even here on preplounge, if you go in the "case library".
If you haven't already prepared for doing cases and you want to read something, I personally suggest the Cosentino's "Case in Point" and the Victor Cheng's "Case Interview secrets".
Feel free to contact me for any further suggestion.

Best,
Luca

Hi,
I confirm Cosentino and Cheng are more than enough to fix the theory. After a first reading, what will be really important for the preparation is practicing mock cases with other candidates here on Preplounge.

Fr any tips on structure the preparation feel free to text me.

Best,
Antonello
