Getting accelerated through a T2 interview process for associate. 2 cases and one fit across next week. I haven’t done a case in nearly three years, am I screwed? How do I even approach trying to prep in time while being completely slammed at work?

I was in the same boat, hadn’t done one in about 3 years, slammed on a project. prepped for 2 hours before the case reviewing frameworks, skimmed a few videos to remember the flow. Thought it was gonna go miserably m, but I passed. Turns out working in consulting for a few years is pretty good practice for thinking through a case.

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA
