Consulting-like cases PE interviews

Hi guys trying to prepare for an interview for a megafund next week and was told that I will have consulting-like investment case studies. So it will be both qualitative and quantitative. I have in mind criteria for the commercial side but cannot find case studies online. I am not after paper LBOs but case studies which have both the commercial and quantitative side on an investment idea. Does anyone have any materials?

thanks a lot!! Zizi

Look up "Grad school name + case book"

Ross + Case Book Fuqua + Case Book

et cetera. Then look for what you need in those books. There are plenty of appropriate cases. You could always find a case like a DD and then pretend the buyer wants to feed in top line number for input into their model and then make an exercise for yourself that's both case + financials.
