He has a great talk thats on YouTube, all the key bits from his book. Just watch that as a starting point, then do tonnes of cases as practice. You'll find example cases on YouTube, also try and find an old business school case book pdf online, which will have a bunch of shorter examples too
Agreed re: Yale SOM - I recommend those vids to most people I talk to in recruiting
Rocketblocks peer to peer casing should be enough
Crafting cases free course “case fundamentals” is good if you are unfamiliar with the terrain. But you need to do live mock interviews with peers imho… you have time, push for at least 1-2 cases per day with someone (preferably someone more experienced in the first few cases)
Good for you guys! I would still recommend peer practice if possible but definitely know it is not a necessity for everyone to be successful
No. But you should absolutely do live case practices if possible
I did a total of 1 live case before my interviews, definitely not a requirement.
That said, Victor Cheng is not a great resource, recommend Crafting Cases and some of the other prep materials out there.
Crafting cases is the best
His materials are okay but they are outdated for the current interview structure. He is also a big tool who talks himself to be the god of consulting - (he did not even make EM at McK). I read his blog how he explains mckinsey reviews resumes and I can say it’s complete bullshit (at least in the last four years)
I recommend his book and Case in Point
This. The recordings were useful for me to understand best practice.
Hmm. Not really. I'd rather choose live cases or crafting cases.
I got the recordings of LOMS and found them super helpful in terms of structuring my own flows. You don’t have to use his structures, and there are better ones out there, but many small things about the process that you can get from LOMS have been super useful
I thought so. I used it back in 2015 though. Got the offer!
Kind of outdated at this point.
Pretty outdated materials imo
