JavaJolt Coffee is a regional chain with 50 stores. Same-store sales have declined 8% YoY. They recently opened 12 new stores and their loyalty app engagement dropped 30% after a redesign.
How would you structure your approach to diagnose what's driving the sales decline?
| Quarter | Revenue/Store | YoY |
|---|---|---|
| Q1 | $490K | -5% |
| Q2 | $475K | -8% |
| Q3 | $460K | -10% |
| Q4 | $450K | -12% |

After your diagnostic
“Your segmentation of the profit drop was logical, and you correctly identified in-store revenue as the bottleneck. However, you jumped to the price-elasticity hypothesis without first checking if the 15% drop was also driven by COGS/fixed cost spikes. Next time, validate the cost side before deep-diving.”

How It Works
No more wondering if you're studying the right thing. No more begging friends for practice. No more walking in hoping you're ready.
Practice at midnight or between classes. No scheduling, no favors to ask.
Face the same case types you'll get in final rounds: profitability, market entry, M&A, pricing
You'll get pushed harder than most peer practice. That's how you actually improve.
One 10-minute rep builds more skill than an hour re-reading frameworks
Profitability Case
Your client is a national retailer with 400 stores. Same-store sales dropped 20% over 18 months.
The CEO wants to know: should they close stores, invest in e-commerce, or restructure?

Questions
Not at all. The diagnostic is designed to measure where you are right now. No frameworks to memorize, no reading required. Just show up, put on headphones, and talk through the case. That’s how we build your baseline.
Especially for you. Most candidates start with zero case experience and spend weeks reading frameworks before ever practicing. CaseStar skips that gap. Your first session is a real case at your level. Your scorecard tells you exactly where to focus. No guesswork, no wasted time on things you don’t need yet.
No. The core case skills (structuring, math, communication, synthesis) are the same across all consulting firms. But we do personalize your preparation based on your target firm. Deloitte cases play differently than McKinsey cases, and your study plan reflects that.
The free diagnostic takes about 10 minutes. After that, full practice cases run 20–30 minutes depending on the case type. Think of it like a real interview round: enough time to go deep, not so long that it feels like a lecture.
A full scorecard across 5 dimensions (structure, math, communication, creativity, business sense). Your actual words quoted back with coaching notes on each key moment. A personalized action plan with specific next steps. And your study plan updates automatically based on what changed.
Yes. Your sessions, scores, and transcripts are private to your account. We don’t share your performance data with firms, schools, or anyone else.
