Hey!

Ah yes. We've all been there unfortunately - the pre-final round interview blues; it is definitely a struggle

What I always tell my friends who are going through the process - if you've reached this stage, don't use your final day reviewing your case notes. Go out (but don't go wild - be responsible :) ), and enjoy yourself - de-stress

The mere fact that you are in an MBB final round means that you have done every thing right. You've already passed two R1 interviews; you have exactly what it takes to win and get the offer

Go out, breathe some fresh air, enjoy yourself, and take your mind off the interview that's coming up - you will be fine

One thing I always kept in mind while going through the process, is that regardless of seniority, the individual on the other side of the camera, was once in my shoes :) That same concept applies in your case

Trust yourself, and you will be more than fine, and please keep us in the loop with how you did

Best of luck, and go conquer it

Best,

Karim
