I want to buy LOMS one of these days. In what format do you receive the files actually? Is it multiple mp3 files? I thought it may be nice to listen to them in the car :)

Hi Geoff,

yep, audio files are in mp3 and written files are in pdf. I had uploaded all LOMS files on my iPod and listened while jogging, driving etc. - everywhere! ;)

Regards,

Exactly, 5 cases, with 3 to 5 attempts of 30 to 50 minutes in length in separate mp3 files and transcriptions (not the best, some errors) in pdf.

It's good; I bought it. However I found the book more or less equally good - not sure LOMS is value for money in that perspective..

I have it. It's a great way to really internalize a couple of basic points. Frankly, I think the 4 or 5 times when victor interviewed himself are the most helpful. Sometimes I felt like wasting my time listening for an hour to some random person that clearly does no know how to do well in a case interview. So if you can borrow the tape from a friend for these 4 or 5 best practices, I think you have the gist of it. :)

Personally what I don't like about all the Chengs, Cosentino etc..is their over-reliance on frameworks.
Frameworks are good study aids, but, they are not magic plug ins enabling you to crack cases, as Cosentino puts it. All my friends learnt the 12 magic frameworks. None of them got in.

Structure is super important in consulting, but they should teach you to create your own structure, rather than applying a ready-made recipe..
I practised with My Consulting Coach. I loved two things about them:

1. The interviewer was absolutely amazing and forced me to structure my thinking and create my own frameworks: i was learning a mindset, rather than a few charts
2. With around 350$ you can do 4 hours of real interviews, and, at least for me trying to do things is very different from passively listening to some recordings. Maybe you feel you understand everything from recordings, but then when you have a real interviewer pressuring you everything vanishes...

Then i had my real interviews, and believe me, they were very to the ones I had with my coach..and I got into McK..
