If you truly bombed then you will not get an offer. Plenty of times people think they bombed but didn't, however.

It’s a no. Have offers from both BCG and McK though so I’m not complaining

If you truly bombed, then unfortunately not. If it was a tough case and you felt like you bombed but actually did well relative to other candidates, then you’ll probably get the offer.

Guess we're more selective...

Cases are rated on a letter grade scale. If your cases went A/B, you'll probably get the offer. A/C, depends on the details of your casing and the rest of the candidate pool. A/D or A/F, almost definitely not

Good luck! Could you share how long the process took after the pre-screening phase until R1/R2 phases?

Which office has power round?

How do you know you did "well enough"?

Did you get feedback yet?
