Business Mental Math redefines mental math by offering you an easy-to-follow algorithm for each arithmetic operation —addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division— and a bonus one for validating results. Concise and presented in plain English, these ready-made algorithms allow you to make optimal choices within an inventory of mental math techniques to ace any calculation.

 

To practice the algorithms, Business Mental Math offers relevant exercises set in real-world business contexts, asking you to compute values for useful business metrics. Furthermore, a free companion to the book —the Business Mental Math Randomizer— provides you with infinite mental math practice to ensure your mastery of every technique.

 

Devoid of theoretical and historical digressions, Business Mental Math sets one practical goal: to help you make quick and accurate computations in your mind, so that you can shine in case interviews and excel at graduate-level standardized tests.

The Art of Consulting Decision-Making: 100% Mutually Exclusive and Collectively Exhaustive (MECE).

Framework is the only resource that offers a comprehensive guide to the most challenging part of a consulting case interview: structuring.

 

Required of candidates in the decisive first minutes of a case interview, a case structure forms the interviewer’s first impression of your preparedness, creates an expectation about your upcoming performance, and lays the groundwork for asking the right questions and ultimately cracking the case.

 

Framework presents for the first time a detailed classification of the business challenges that strategy consultants confront and a state-of-the-art framework to ace each one of them. Doing so, it takes a company-neutral approach and lays out a universal method that is relevant throughout consulting companies rather than referencing a single firm’s school of thought.

 

Written in plain English and featuring beginner-friendly definitions, Framework helps you instantly improve your case structuring skills and immediately solve cases like a professional consultant.
