What books would you recommend to read to prepare for case interviews?
First few that comes to mind are Porter's books, maybe Ohmae's Mind of The Strategist, Risel's McKinsey Mind.
Anything else to recommend? |

For interviews, I actually liked Risel's McKinsey Way a bit better than McKinsey Mind. Dangerous Companies (O'shea) has some interesting consulting vignettes that you may be able to glean some tidbits from, and otherwise is pretty amusing. A review of micro-econ might be useful depending on your background. The Portable MBA could similarly be useful depending on your background. And Vault and Wetfeet have numerous guides with sample cases and things to think about.
Good luck!
