Not being a bozo in MBB
I recently interviewed for and got an MBB internship offer. Overnight, my biggest worry shifted from doing case interviews to looking like an uneducated bozo on the job.
Does anyone have any book recommendations or popular topics to familiarize myself with so that I can have something to talk about with my peers?
Managing to learn by John Shook is a good book for learning how to get to the root of problems, would highly recommend
Amazing recommendation - will check it out!

I normally don't recommend any books, because I believe increasing your familiarity with different industries and business problems is more important (like reading WSJ, FT, BusinessWeek, Business Insider, etc etc)
That being said, The Pyramid Principle by Barbara Minto is a short but helpful way to think about how you communicate and convey your point more efficiently. It's a little old, so it references "Memos" and so on, but the overall takeaways still stand. It's a quick read, and it makes some pretty good points around comms.
