The best one yet.
Five stars. Highly recommend. Case in Point 12 was significantly updated. Cosentino writes about the consultant’s mindset, shows us how to analyze charts, and challenges us with case drills in strategy and math. It has 20 sophisticated cases (in my experience most books only have a few). Chapter 9, The Ivy Case System, is worth the price alone.

Good book, just not for the quantitative case interviews
I brought the book to study for a quantitative case interviews for a bank, the book overall covers the concepts of the case and structure, but it does not aptly cover the other companies that do case interviews but not consulting firms
