"I had a great experience working with the grad next to prepare for my case interviews. The support and guidance I received were instrumental in improving both my confidence and my performance during the actual interviews. A special thanks to Kashish and Nikhil, who were exceptional throughout the process. Kashish brought clarity and structure to complex problems and always made sure I understood not just the "how" but also the "why" behind every step. Nikhil's insights and constructive feedback helped me refine my approach and think more critically under pressure. Their mock sessions were well-structured, realistic, and tailored to my needs. I truly appreciated the attention to detail, the patience, and the personalized feedback that helped me progress with each session. I would highly recommend their services to anyone serious about case interview preparation."


"The process is great, Gradnext team takes you through each step of the process in a detailed manner, is always open to discuss things on a short notice which helps clarifying crucial challenges across the way. The mentors are very experienced and greatly help polishing ones case solving skills."


"I have always had deep respect for Kashish, having seen his inspiring professional journey since our undergrad days. Knowing his standards and commitment, I was confident that Gradnext would be built with a genuine plan to deliver successful outcomes for consulting candidates. That conviction only grew stronger once I started working with him and his team. The multiple casing sessions with Kashish were incredibly valuable - he helped me spot nuanced aspects of my casing style that could be sharpened further. Beyond cases, he also shared high-quality resources for behavioral interview prep and deeper casing frameworks, both of which turned out to be immensely helpful in the final stretch. What truly set this experience apart was the personalized support. Kashish connected me with one of his partners in this endeavor, who happened to have worked in the same regional office belt where I was interviewing. He not only pushed me in casing but also gave me an insider's perspective on the office, the typical case types, and even insights on the people I'd potentially work with. That context was invaluable - it helped me better tailor my approach, especially for behavioral questions, and made me feel much more confident heading into the interviews. I would wholeheartedly recommend Gradnext to anyone preparing for consulting interviews. The combination of structured guidance, insider insights, and genuine mentorship is rare - and it made a real difference in my journey."
"Thank you so much team for helping me turn this into reality! Gradnext is truly the best in the game, and it has been my absolute pleasure to be working with the team. None of this would've been possible without the team. The constant push & morale support really helped push through the hard days. They're truly best in the game, thank you for helping me turn my dream into reality"
"The biggest strength is definitely the access to a large pool of consultants already working at top firms. You know they've been through the process themselves, so you can trust their feedback. Scheduling was also really smooth, even last-minute requests were handled very well. Another thing I really appreciated was how helpful the team outside of the interviewers has been. Kashish has been super supportive and always available whenever needed, and the overall admin team made the process feel very easy to navigate."
"It has been very helpful. They all are very motivating and super invested in your success. The last minute sessions were very proactively scheduled."
"Kashish was a true pillar of support throughout my prep process. I definitely owe a huge part of my convert to him! From resume reviews to case prep his inputs at each stage were truly pivotal and value adding. Line by line inputs in resume with detailed discussion on what we want to convey. Tailored feedback on cases with tracking of performance over time. Kashish treats your prep journey as his own and is a great mentor to have by your side!"
"The sessions were planned really well, with enough breadth and depth of case frameworks. Kashish and his team delivered sessions that were easy to grasp, engaging and genuinely insightful. His guidance on preparing cases with peers was instrumental in my interview prep journey. Will recommend gradnext for anyone who is looking for a structured program to learn the art of being MECE!"
"Very helpful in terms of getting to know the areas to work upon and how exactly can I work upon them"
"I had a great experience with gradnext! I was referred to gradnext by Mahika, who had worked with them and received an offer herself so proof of delivery was there. Bit of background on me, I had done multiple cases before, gotten to final rounds of MBB firms more than once but never got the offer. So I joined initially on the mid mile prep journey with the aim of just doing mentor sessions. Eventually, after getting past the first round stages I decided to move on to the Full Prep where I got access to the recorded videos. That was a game changer for me, as it essentially rewired how I approached cases. I went from using my own method that I collated from various resources to using GradNext's approach. I found it to be a very very useful resource which transformed the way I approached cases. The mentor cases were helpful- some mentors more than others. They challenged me every case more and more pushing me to the edge, and giving solid feedback. The casebooks from the resources were also very helpful in practice. All in all, very happy with the program. Thanks a lot Kashish and team"
"Kashish has been a mentor to me for the past two years. He's never failed to make time, despite the time difference, in case prepping and preparing me for different interviews at top consulting firms. His methodical and structured yet innovative approach to case interviews helped me secure my EY internship in the Business Consulting service line in Toronto. He has taken the time to review my resume and has offered tailored recruitment advice. His prompt responses and overall stellar experience in the field truly helps new grads like myself navigate the world of consulting."
"With just one week to prepare for my case and fit interviews, I knew I had to be strategic. Having been out of touch with case solving for over 1.5 years since graduating from B-school, I needed a high-impact solution that prioritized quality over quantity. That's when I came across Gradnext and decided to enroll in their Last Mile Prep course. The program provided top-notch mock case interviews with experienced interviewers from top-tier consulting firms across various seniority levels. Each session was tailored to refine my approach, identify my weaknesses, and build my confidence. What truly sets Gradnext apart is the personalized mentorship. A huge shoutout to Kashish for his exceptional guidance and customized feedback at every step—even up until the final stage of my interview. His support made all the difference. If you're serious about breaking into your dream consulting firm, I couldn't recommend Gradnext more!"
"gradnext was a huge help in my consulting prep journey. Their mock interviews gave me the structure and confidence I needed, and the detailed feedback helped me improve with each session. What I appreciated most was how flexible and accommodating they were with my schedule - it made the whole process so much easier. If you're looking for solid prep with a supportive team that really cares, I highly recommend them!"
"I think each consultant was different and had a different approach so the tips and strategies were very unique and showed a personal journey. The schedule was very adaptive to my preferences. The response times were quick and very need specific, I have an interview so the intensity was increased. I loved mentor's structure to the whole call"
"1. Really appreciate the over delivery of a session towards the end 2. Kashish genuinely cared about helping and wanting to see me do well which really stood out to me 3. Immensely grateful towards the team for their mentorship"
"Thanks Gradnext team for all preparation for interviews - building my concepts and practising with me various case interviews. It helped build my muscle and confidence for cases which I had completely lost touch. I loved - Rigour in feedback and continuity in development - Great set of resources for practice and basic foundations - Diligence in terms of follow up regarding job interview selection process and case practice sessions"
"gradnext and the whole team have been super supportive throughout the case preparation phase. Kashish understands your needs and connects you with the right mentors who not only help refine your skills but also guide you in building confidence and approaching cases strategically. The case preparation with Gradnext provides a well-structured set of cases covering a wide variety of scenarios, ensuring thorough preparation. Learning from mentors with real-life experience makes a big difference, helping you refine your thinking and problem-solving approach. Alongside your preparation Kashish is always just a ping away, ready to answer your queries and share valuable tips to help you improve."
"When a sudden interview invitation came my way, I knew I needed to get back into interview shape quickly. Even with my past consulting experience and MBA case prep, I felt quite rusty. My friends weren't able to squeeze in mock interviews on such short notice, so I reached out to Gradnext. They connected me with interviewers perfectly suited to my background and the company I was targeting. After just five mock interviews over about four days, my confidence soared. Thanks to that focused practice, I successfully landed the offer and have now joined the firm. I genuinely recommend Gradnext to anyone in a similar situation."
"Kashish and the whole grad next helped me from step 1, in the process of building confidence and they gave me the competitive edge over the rest of my cohort. Really grateful to all of them."
"Kashish conducted mock case interviews for me. The cases were challenging and very similar to what is asked in actual MDP/Partner rounds at MBB. This is especially helpful if you want to refine your approach beyond the standard frameworks presented in case books. The feedback provided was very detailed and helped me to improve my structuring, drill down speed as well as the final recommendations."
"I got the offer from McKinsey! The last 2 weeks were nothing short of momentous with lots of highs and lows, I'm really glad I made that leap of faith and called you up, each case and call with you encouraged me through the last mile to now when I have an offer!"
"The experience was extremely helpful. The mentor communicated my weaknesses and strength in depth. He also provided me with useful insights"
"Gradnext has been super helpful, I did a few cases with the team and appreciated the detailed feedback. I only had a couple of days to prepare for my first interview and I appreciate the flexibility of the team to help me prepare. Mentors were excellent and the dashboard was super helpful in reviewing the cases."
"It's a very smooth experience. The major advantage with the program is the availability of quality resources for casing with streamlined process. Given my busy schedules made it easier for me to gain access to the relevant resources with minimum efforts."
"As someone who used to underestimate himself at every point & dealt with the infamous impostor syndrome, the journey with the GradNext team has been a transformational one. From the mentor case sessions to Kashish's personal support at every step, I was able to make my dream a reality. Moving forward, I know that my problem-solving abilities have improved over the course of the Full Prep Plus program at GradNext. I'm a curious, more confident individual who's now ready to take his first step in the world of consulting! Thank you, and shoutout to everyone in the team for making this possible!"
"Great experience with Gradnext. I'd strongly recommend it to anyone looking to sharpen their case and interview skills. What stood out: - Clear, actionable feedback after every case - Mentors who provide sharp, to-the-point insights - Smooth and efficient mock-scheduling process Credit to Gradnext for helping me crack my interviews. I'm sure there are many more success stories on the way!"
"The session was well-structured, making it easy to follow and understand. Kashish provided clear, targeted answers to each question, guiding me toward the right approach and helping me understand the rationale behind it. I feel confident that I made the right choice by choosing and paying for this session. For anyone seeking clarity in consulting, this session is exactly what I needed. I'd say I truly bet on the right horse."
"Kashish and the team are truly the best mentors anyone could have for consulting prep. Every session with them was filled with valuable insights and learnings. They made sure that my concepts were crystal clear, and I felt fully prepared for my D-day. Kashish personally designed my preparation schedule, tailored specifically to my performance level. The team ensured I was exposed to a wide range of cases, and I gained complete clarity in my approach. Special attention was given to my weak areas, and they consistently worked on building my confidence, which I struggled with at first. Every day, they encouraged me and stood by me until the very end. This team will always have a special place in my heart. I am deeply grateful to all of you."
"It was really helpful! "
"gradnext is easily one of the best in the game when it comes to consulting prep. My experience with them was honestly very reassuring throughout the process. Kashish was always just a call away, no matter how small or silly my doubt felt, I could reach out without hesitation and get it clarified quickly, especially during the more stressful phases. One thing I really valued was the flexibility, any last-minute changes or requests around case sessions were always accommodated, which made the whole experience much smoother. I also liked that I got to do cases with different mentors, which helped me adapt to different styles and perspectives. Arpit, Ankit, and Aditya were amazing to work with, they pushed me to think better, structure my answers clearly, and perform under pressure. It wasn’t always easy in the moment, but it made a big difference to my improvement. Overall, it felt like the right balance of support and challenge, I always felt backed by the team while being consistently pushed to do better. I would definitely recommend gradnext to anyone who is serious about getting into consulting."
"The mock interview sessions were super helpful, all the coaches seemed invested in my progress, and it gave me the chance to practice out loud and with people who’ve actually been through the process before. The cohort was wonderful as well, it allowed me to practice feedback from mock interview sessions in a no pressure environment, and as the interviewer in P2P sessions I also got a sense of what an actual interviewer would care about. "

"I had a great experience working with the grad next to prepare for my case interviews.

The combination of structured guidance, insider insights, and genuine mentorship is rare - and it made a real difference in my journey."
"Thank you so much team for helping me turn this into reality! Gradnext is truly the best in the game, and it has been my absolute pleasure to be working with the team. None of this would've been possible without the team. The constant push & morale support really helped push through the hard days. They're truly best in the game, thank you for helping me turn my dream into reality"
"The biggest strength is definitely the access to a large pool of consultants already working at top firms. You know they've been through the process themselves, so you can trust their feedback. Scheduling was also really smooth, even last-minute requests were handled very well. Another thing I really appreciated was how helpful the team outside of the interviewers has been. Kashish has been super supportive and always available whenever needed, and the overall admin team made the process feel very easy to navigate."
"It has been very helpful. They all are very motivating and super invested in your success. The last minute sessions were very proactively scheduled."
"Kashish was a true pillar of support throughout my prep process. I definitely owe a huge part of my convert to him! From resume reviews to case prep his inputs at each stage were truly pivotal and value adding. Line by line inputs in resume with detailed discussion on what we want to convey. Tailored feedback on cases with tracking of performance over time. Kashish treats your prep journey as his own and is a great mentor to have by your side!"
"The sessions were planned really well, with enough breadth and depth of case frameworks. Kashish and his team delivered sessions that were easy to grasp, engaging and genuinely insightful. His guidance on preparing cases with peers was instrumental in my interview prep journey. Will recommend gradnext for anyone who is looking for a structured program to learn the art of being MECE!"
"Very helpful in terms of getting to know the areas to work upon and how exactly can I work upon them"
"I had a great experience with gradnext! I was referred to gradnext by Mahika, who had worked with them and received an offer herself so proof of delivery was there. Bit of background on me, I had done multiple cases before, gotten to final rounds of MBB firms more than once but never got the offer. So I joined initially on the mid mile prep journey with the aim of just doing mentor sessions. Eventually, after getting past the first round stages I decided to move on to the Full Prep where I got access to the recorded videos. That was a game changer for me, as it essentially rewired how I approached cases. I went from using my own method that I collated from various resources to using GradNext's approach. I found it to be a very very useful resource which transformed the way I approached cases. The mentor cases were helpful- some mentors more than others. They challenged me every case more and more pushing me to the edge, and giving solid feedback. The casebooks from the resources were also very helpful in practice. All in all, very happy with the program. Thanks a lot Kashish and team"
"Kashish has been a mentor to me for the past two years. He's never failed to make time, despite the time difference, in case prepping and preparing me for different interviews at top consulting firms. His methodical and structured yet innovative approach to case interviews helped me secure my EY internship in the Business Consulting service line in Toronto. He has taken the time to review my resume and has offered tailored recruitment advice. His prompt responses and overall stellar experience in the field truly helps new grads like myself navigate the world of consulting."
"With just one week to prepare for my case and fit interviews, I knew I had to be strategic. Having been out of touch with case solving for over 1.5 years since graduating from B-school, I needed a high-impact solution that prioritized quality over quantity. That's when I came across Gradnext and decided to enroll in their Last Mile Prep course. The program provided top-notch mock case interviews with experienced interviewers from top-tier consulting firms across various seniority levels. Each session was tailored to refine my approach, identify my weaknesses, and build my confidence. What truly sets Gradnext apart is the personalized mentorship. A huge shoutout to Kashish for his exceptional guidance and customized feedback at every step—even up until the final stage of my interview. His support made all the difference. If you're serious about breaking into your dream consulting firm, I couldn't recommend Gradnext more!"
"gradnext was a huge help in my consulting prep journey. Their mock interviews gave me the structure and confidence I needed, and the detailed feedback helped me improve with each session. What I appreciated most was how flexible and accommodating they were with my schedule - it made the whole process so much easier. If you're looking for solid prep with a supportive team that really cares, I highly recommend them!"
"I think each consultant was different and had a different approach so the tips and strategies were very unique and showed a personal journey. The schedule was very adaptive to my preferences. The response times were quick and very need specific, I have an interview so the intensity was increased. I loved mentor's structure to the whole call"
"1. Really appreciate the over delivery of a session towards the end 2. Kashish genuinely cared about helping and wanting to see me do well which really stood out to me 3. Immensely grateful towards the team for their mentorship"
"Thanks Gradnext team for all preparation for interviews - building my concepts and practising with me various case interviews. It helped build my muscle and confidence for cases which I had completely lost touch. I loved - Rigour in feedback and continuity in development - Great set of resources for practice and basic foundations - Diligence in terms of follow up regarding job interview selection process and case practice sessions"
"gradnext and the whole team have been super supportive throughout the case preparation phase. Kashish understands your needs and connects you with the right mentors who not only help refine your skills but also guide you in building confidence and approaching cases strategically. The case preparation with Gradnext provides a well-structured set of cases covering a wide variety of scenarios, ensuring thorough preparation. Learning from mentors with real-life experience makes a big difference, helping you refine your thinking and problem-solving approach. Alongside your preparation Kashish is always just a ping away, ready to answer your queries and share valuable tips to help you improve."
"When a sudden interview invitation came my way, I knew I needed to get back into interview shape quickly. Even with my past consulting experience and MBA case prep, I felt quite rusty. My friends weren't able to squeeze in mock interviews on such short notice, so I reached out to Gradnext. They connected me with interviewers perfectly suited to my background and the company I was targeting. After just five mock interviews over about four days, my confidence soared. Thanks to that focused practice, I successfully landed the offer and have now joined the firm. I genuinely recommend Gradnext to anyone in a similar situation."
"Kashish and the whole grad next helped me from step 1, in the process of building confidence and they gave me the competitive edge over the rest of my cohort. Really grateful to all of them."
"Kashish conducted mock case interviews for me. The cases were challenging and very similar to what is asked in actual MDP/Partner rounds at MBB. This is especially helpful if you want to refine your approach beyond the standard frameworks presented in case books. The feedback provided was very detailed and helped me to improve my structuring, drill down speed as well as the final recommendations."
"I got the offer from McKinsey! The last 2 weeks were nothing short of momentous with lots of highs and lows, I'm really glad I made that leap of faith and called you up, each case and call with you encouraged me through the last mile to now when I have an offer!"
"The experience was extremely helpful. The mentor communicated my weaknesses and strength in depth. He also provided me with useful insights"
"Gradnext has been super helpful, I did a few cases with the team and appreciated the detailed feedback. I only had a couple of days to prepare for my first interview and I appreciate the flexibility of the team to help me prepare. Mentors were excellent and the dashboard was super helpful in reviewing the cases."
"It's a very smooth experience. The major advantage with the program is the availability of quality resources for casing with streamlined process. Given my busy schedules made it easier for me to gain access to the relevant resources with minimum efforts."
"As someone who used to underestimate himself at every point & dealt with the infamous impostor syndrome, the journey with the GradNext team has been a transformational one. From the mentor case sessions to Kashish's personal support at every step, I was able to make my dream a reality. Moving forward, I know that my problem-solving abilities have improved over the course of the Full Prep Plus program at GradNext. I'm a curious, more confident individual who's now ready to take his first step in the world of consulting! Thank you, and shoutout to everyone in the team for making this possible!"
"Great experience with Gradnext. I'd strongly recommend it to anyone looking to sharpen their case and interview skills. What stood out: - Clear, actionable feedback after every case - Mentors who provide sharp, to-the-point insights - Smooth and efficient mock-scheduling process Credit to Gradnext for helping me crack my interviews. I'm sure there are many more success stories on the way!"
"The session was well-structured, making it easy to follow and understand. Kashish provided clear, targeted answers to each question, guiding me toward the right approach and helping me understand the rationale behind it. I feel confident that I made the right choice by choosing and paying for this session. For anyone seeking clarity in consulting, this session is exactly what I needed. I'd say I truly bet on the right horse."
"Kashish and the team are truly the best mentors anyone could have for consulting prep. Every session with them was filled with valuable insights and learnings. They made sure that my concepts were crystal clear, and I felt fully prepared for my D-day. Kashish personally designed my preparation schedule, tailored specifically to my performance level. The team ensured I was exposed to a wide range of cases, and I gained complete clarity in my approach. Special attention was given to my weak areas, and they consistently worked on building my confidence, which I struggled with at first. Every day, they encouraged me and stood by me until the very end. This team will always have a special place in my heart. I am deeply grateful to all of you."
"It was really helpful! "
"gradnext is easily one of the best in the game when it comes to consulting prep. My experience with them was honestly very reassuring throughout the process. Kashish was always just a call away, no matter how small or silly my doubt felt, I could reach out without hesitation and get it clarified quickly, especially during the more stressful phases. One thing I really valued was the flexibility, any last-minute changes or requests around case sessions were always accommodated, which made the whole experience much smoother. I also liked that I got to do cases with different mentors, which helped me adapt to different styles and perspectives. Arpit, Ankit, and Aditya were amazing to work with, they pushed me to think better, structure my answers clearly, and perform under pressure. It wasn’t always easy in the moment, but it made a big difference to my improvement. Overall, it felt like the right balance of support and challenge, I always felt backed by the team while being consistently pushed to do better. I would definitely recommend gradnext to anyone who is serious about getting into consulting."
"The mock interview sessions were super helpful, all the coaches seemed invested in my progress, and it gave me the chance to practice out loud and with people who’ve actually been through the process before. The cohort was wonderful as well, it allowed me to practice feedback from mock interview sessions in a no pressure environment, and as the interviewer in P2P sessions I also got a sense of what an actual interviewer would care about.
