MBB Case prep
Hello everyone, if you only had 3 weeks to prepare the cases for Bain, how would you proceed? Any tips? Taking into account I'll be working 5 days a week, so I won't be full time practicing the cases and I never did any of them

Start with LOMS to get the idea of how a case actually works. Once you understand the "flow" take a couple notes on the basic frameworks you will use for the majority of the cases (profitability, market-entry, new product etc.). After you have the basics just try to do as many live cases with someone as possible. Live cases have the highest ROI and considering you don't have a lot of time I would try to get around ~15 in before your interviews. Really focus on improving a specific part of your case each time you do one - could be your introduction/hypothesis or making a customized framework for the case or having good calculations. Ask for feedback from the person you are doing it with to try and guide your practice for what you need to focus on.
Hi i have a bain interview coming up if you want to practice cases let me know
Hey toubu54 a recent post came up also asking about Case Prep. So I'll repurpose the content since it's just as relevant.
In case interviews, this is the general resources list that is widely used:
Now, given that you are working 5 days a week, I'll provide my proposed breakdown with that in consideration.
There's no one size fits all for casing and the breakdown above is assuming (1) you have a few hours in the evening and (2) you have no prior consulting exposure. Over time, candidates move on from reading frameworks/concepts to simply doing x number of cases a week. Those that pass MBB do anywhere from 10-50 cases, of course, there are exceptions with some people that are naturally skilled in casing, not me of course - I did 40-50 myself.
