Don't Read the Answer First
Attempt the case yourself for 25-30 minutes before looking at the framework and recommendation. This builds the muscle memory you need in real interviews.
Compare Your Structure
After attempting, compare your framework to the expert solution. The goal isn't identical structure — it's checking that you covered the same key issues.
Practice the Math Out Loud
When you encounter quantitative sections, do the calculations verbally as you would in an interview. Speed and clarity matter as much as accuracy.
Track Your Patterns
After 10+ cases, review which areas (structure, math, synthesis) are consistently weak. Focus your practice on those dimensions.
