Prepping for MBB case interviews? You need to know:

• What a "good" performance looks like
• How to use scoring criteria to self-assess
• What the interviewer is seeing / thinking as they walk you through the case

That's exactly what Ryan (McKinsey) demonstrates in this episode by walking through a case 2 times:

• The 1st time, he runs through it as a candidate
• The 2nd time, he gives himself feedback based on MC scoring criteria and walks through his rationale for each answer

Happy prepping!
