I learned to play the clarinet when I was in 3rd grade and ultimately by high school, I reached state-level qualification as I competed in the new york state all-state competition. This success taught me the importance of perseverance and resilience even when I was faced with immense hurdles. These lessons translated to my success in academics.

Hello!

On top of the insights already shared in the post, the "Integrated FIT guide for MBB" has been recently published in PrepLounge´s shop (https://www.preplounge.com/en/shop/tests-2/integrated-fit-guide-for-mbb-34), adressing topics precisely as your question.

It provides an end-to-end preparation for all three MBB interviews, tackling each firms particularities and combining key concepts review and a hands-on methodology. Following the book, the candidate will prepare his/her stories by practicing with over 50 real questions and leveraging special frameworks and worksheets that guide step-by-step, developed by the author and her experience as a Master in Management professor and coach. Finally, as further guidance, the guide encompasses over 20 examples from real candidates.

Furthermore, you can find 2 free cases in the PrepL case regarding FIT preparation:

Sport, music, cuisine, and volunteering activities are good topics to be discussed in these situations.
