Crafting cases

I wouldn't bother at all with Case in Point and Victor Cheng. Case in point is a good book for introducing it, but the way it presents in how to solve a case will actually make you fail the interview. Start applying generic frameworks with generic questions and it will be a big no no.

Victor Cheng is quite simple IMHO tbh. Will only help in business cases per se, and even then there is almost no creativity.

Trust me, watch the free course at crafting cases, will help you so much. Got an offer at BCG and going for the final round at OW and Bain right now, mostly due to them.

Just scored 700 on my GMAT and I feel like a bag of crap. For reference, I put in 300+hrs into my studying, which is overkill but the course I signed up for took this long.
