Advanced Casing
Upon successful completion of the Casing program, top performing casing students will be considered for BU Consulting Group's Advanced Casing — our semester-long case interview preparation program meant for students with prior case interview experience.
Each week we will be diving into specific areas of case interviews such as brainstorming, exhibit analysis, case math, and more. Throughout each class, students will be able to apply these skills with practice examples and live case interviews. They will also be exposed to new case types such as growth and operations cases.
Students are encouraged to actively participate and engage with each other. In this discussion style format students will be better equipped to understand the nuances of cases and stand out against other candidates.
