The Shape

The shape of your case performance

Every run feeds five axes. Together they draw a shape — and the work is rounding it out until there is no edge left for an interviewer to find.

Your profile

One picture, five truths

The gold shape is you today. The dashed emerald line is the partner baseline — the bar a top firm hires against. The gaps are your roadmap.

  • Gold = your current level across every axis
  • Dashed emerald = the partner-level baseline to clear
  • The dent that's furthest in is exactly what to drill next

The five axes

What each edge measures

Firms do not hire on math alone — they hire on the whole shape. Here is what moves each one.

Structure

How MECE and driver-focused your issue trees are — and how fast you get to a clean one under pressure.

Math

Speed and accuracy on mental arithmetic, sizing, and exhibit reads — with units and sanity checks intact.

Synthesis

Whether you land a so-what recommendation that answers the question, not just a summary of what you found.

Presence

Pace, poise, and clarity. How you hold the room when a partner interrupts or pushes back on your number.

Creativity

The non-obvious branch, the second-order effect, the insight a strong candidate sees and an average one misses.

Weekly tracking

Watch the shape round out

Every Monday, Rehearsa overlays last week’s shape on this one. You see exactly which axis grew, which one stalled, and the two cases most likely to close the biggest remaining gap.
