It’s a question of quality over quantity. If you do mock cases with a few people who give great feedback, it can take just a few cases (5-6) to get to a good level. However, if you don’t get good feedback or are practicing on your own, it will take a while and even then you won’t be ready

Will vary by person. I did about 35 cases (with a partner) before I started feeling really confident

Been trying to get out of consulting, studying and prepping from the last 6 months. Now it’s showtime, where I have to start applying. This is the second time in the last 9 months and I’m super scared. I feel I’ll fail and will have to do this all over again.
