Has anyone heard about a "power round" at McKinsey? My recruiter had initially told me that I would have two interviews (first round) but I just got an email from her today, three days prior to the interview, that there will be three people interviewing me and that they changed the process call this a Power Round.

Yes! This is a "one and only" interview process. As in, after the 3 interviews, they will make a final decision as to whether you will be joining the firm or not.
Good luck!

How much does the interviewer prompt you in an interviewer led case interview? After doing your structure is it pretty much just answering their questions?
