Sebastian is a Purdue junior with Bain interviews coming up. He ran a full first-round Bain case live – and after every section, coach Mitali stopped and told him exactly what worked and what he missed.

Mitali spent 5 years in consulting, including as a senior consultant at Bain in London. She's coached 350+ people into MBB and used to interview candidates herself – so she knows what Bain is looking for.

You'll see:

• Why "financial vs. non-financial" is too generic for Bain – and what to say instead
• How to read an exhibit the way Bain wants it done
• The math mistake Sebastian made live – and how he recovered
• How to give a final recommendation backed by the numbers, not your gut

He got McKinsey and Bain interviews and practiced 30 cases with friends – but didn't make it past round 1.

Overconfident Ollie is a target school student with every reason to be confident. He joined Black Belt, made a plan – then mostly went at it alone.

His KPI was cases completed and when MBB's first round came, his floor wasn't high enough.

Katie and Japheth break down what went wrong, what's at stake if the approach doesn't change, and the specific steps Ollie is taking to rebuild before the next round of deadlines.

• Why casing volume without feedback builds false confidence
• What peer casing can't tell you – and why a coach can
• The "floor vs. ceiling" principle that defines where most candidates fall short
