    What to expect in a superday: schedule, common formats, case study flow, and how to prep answers for fast follow-ups and curveballs so you stay calm onsite.

    Typical superday schedule

    • 3 to 6 interviews back-to-back (30 to 45 minutes each).
    • Mix of technical, fit, and a short case or paper LBO.
    • Little downtime between rounds.

    Case study flow

    1. State your recommendation in one sentence.
    2. Share 2 to 3 numeric drivers.
    3. Run a quick sensitivity.
    4. Close with the biggest risk and next check.

    Day-of checklist

    • Two 60-second market briefings ready.
    • One DCF and one LBO walkthrough memorized.
    • Three behavioral stories with numbers.
