Crack the Quant: A Framework for Case Math and Exhibits [7/1/2026] (Recording)

Case math and exhibits are where most candidates lose points, and most prep resources gloss over them. As a former Ross peer coach and BCG interviewer, I know what interviewers are actually looking for, and this session will help prepare you to excel. We'll walk through a custom framework for tackling quant questions and chart reads with structure and confidence, then apply it live to a real exhibit so you can see exactly how it works in practice. A Repeatable Framework for Case Math & Exhibits: Stop reacting to exhibits and start working through them with a repeatable process from the moment the chart hits the table to the moment you drive toward a recommendation. -How to orient yourself to any exhibit quickly: what to read, what to flag, and what to ask before you share insights -A structured way to surface insights at two levels: what the chart shows and what it actually means for the case -A three-part calculation approach that keeps you from doing math aimlessly, so every number you solve for has a purpose and a payoff -What interviewers are actually evaluating when they hand you an exhibit Live Walkthrough: Watch the framework applied to a real exhibit from start to finish.
