No fixed number of cases guarantees readiness, and 100 cases is not a requirement.

Case volume only helps when you are learning from the repetitions. Doing dozens of cases with the same structural or math mistakes can reinforce weak habits rather than fix them.

Someone may be ready after far fewer cases if they can consistently structure unfamiliar problems, handle the math, interpret exhibits, synthesize, and communicate clearly. Another candidate may need more repetitions on one specific skill.

Track performance by skill rather than by case count. After each case, record what broke and whether it improved in the next one. When your weaknesses stop repeating across unfamiliar cases, the number itself matters much less. Keep a short note of what improved and what still broke so the next practice session has a clear purpose.

100 sounds like a lot. I got much more from reviewing 20 cases properly than just stacking up case count.

imo another 30 cases won"t help much if you"re repeating the same structuring mistake every time.

My case partner and I tracked recurring mistakes instead of total cases. That made progress much easier to see.

I know people who did 50 or 60 mocks and were still making the same mistakes because they barely reviewed them.

I'd burn out long before 100 unless a lot of those were short drills rather than full mocks.
