3.0 out of 5 stars Not for non-MBAs, September 18, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Vault Guide to the Case Interview (Paperback)
I'm not an MBA and found it confusing and overwhelming. They assume a certain level of knowledge and only offer cookie-cutter frameworks. I found the book Case in Point to be much clearer and more informative. It's Ivy Case Method makes thinking and structuring the cases much easier.

2.0 out of 5 stars Weak Cases, May 29, 2005
This review is from: Vault Guide to the Case Interview (Paperback)
Hi,

I have used this book among others to get accepted to McKinsey (and with success) and I think this book gave me less then others.

The advantages are the more or less detailed frameworks chapter and the real-life interviews chapter, but the cases themselves are rather superficial and sometimes even obviously ridiculous(like for example the case in which a Star-Trek like omnipotent people transporter has been invented, and the book claims that it wouldn't replace cars because it costs 100,000$. Come on, they would buy one for every block).

I think there are much better resources than this.

Good luck with your interviews!
