I've used Preplounge to practice casing once in while. Recently I felt that it is getting more and more challenging to find experienced case partners on this platform. While I have managed to schedule 2 sessions this week, both meetings was canceled in short notice. Any efficient ways to find experienced case partners on PrepLounge or any other places? Would appreciate your advice.

Hi,
A couple of things that usually help:
1. Be more selective on PrepLounge
Don’t send random requests.
Look for people with:
- many completed cases
- good reviews
- similar level to yours
And send a short, clear message. It already filters out a lot of flakiness.
2. Build a small group of reliable partners
The biggest mistake is starting from zero every time.
If you find 2–3 good people:
- stick with them
- schedule recurring sessions
Way more efficient than constantly searching.
3. Set expectations upfront
Be clear on:
- your level
- what you want to practice
- seriousness (e.g., cancellations, timing)
Good candidates care about this.
Also, honest point: at some stage, just doing more peer cases is not enough. You can get stuck repeating the same mistakes.
That’s where a bit of targeted coaching can help, not as a replacement, but to:
- identify what’s really holding you back
- give you direction
- save time
You don’t need a lot of sessions, but having someone experienced look at your performance can make a big difference.
If you want, feel free to DM
