Why We Built CaseTutor: Our Mission to Democratize Interview Preparation

In 2021, when preparing for consulting internships, I leveraged every possible resource—online casebooks, advice from peers, mock interviews—to gain an edge. Yet, during this preparation, I encountered a frustrating reality that would ultimately inspire the creation of CaseTutor.

The Problem We Faced

The Reality of Expensive Preparation

Free resources were outdated, featuring recycled cases no longer relevant or insightful. Premium platforms like PrepLounge and Management Consulted offered excellent coaching, but with daunting price tags. I vividly recall seeing a $4,500 coaching package and immediately feeling priced out of essential preparation.

The Gap Becomes Clear

Shortly afterward, I met someone who had invested in expensive coaching. The gap in preparedness was striking. Their structured approach, refined frameworks, and noticeable confidence clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of premium resources—but only for those financially capable of accessing them.

The Unequal Playing Field

Personal Success Despite the Odds

Fortunately, I navigated this inequity through sheer determination and extensive practice, ultimately landing my desired offer. However, this experience left a lasting impression: countless capable, driven individuals were unfairly disadvantaged simply due to financial constraints.

The Broader Impact

Your dream career should never be locked behind financial barriers. If you're talented, committed, and willing to work hard, you deserve the best preparation tools—without prohibitive costs.
