I did Mck with only 1 week prep and it was not pretty
Granted I was not in consulting. I wish i had focused more on case basics, speed and then being calm/myself. I ended up really only doing the first of those three. Hope that helps!

I recently joined Swiss Re at 30lpa, pretty good manager and work culture. Got a hike of 10% in 3 months without me asking for it. But got an offer from another company which I was interviewing for before joining here and they are offering a base of 45lpa. Now I am unsure how I convey this to my manager coz I want to stay here but at the same time I am salivating over this new offer and wish I get similar numbers here. Is it worth raising a discussion? If yes what would be a subtle way to do so?
