If you’re close, that final improvement really comes with drills. I did crafting cases (free course) and found it to help a lot. Good way to add structure to frameworks and brainstorming.

like

Agreed. And I really liked rocketblocks for drills.

PrepLounge.com really helped me! Totally worth it to learn and practice as much as you can! It becomes second nature and builds a lot of confidence, good luck OP!

Prep lounge is hit or miss in my opinion but for the few good cases you have on there—start to prep offline with those people on Skype or something. What helped me is just doing reps instead of getting a coach. I did probably 50 cases to practice (including case starts and other exercises) and asked a bunch of different people to help, but mostly had 1-2 folks who were the most reliable and helpful.

Makes sense! I used it 4 years ago, so things may have changed, good luck!
