Assigned a case "buddy" ahead of interview?

Have an MBB summer interview coming up and was assigned a principal "buddy" to do a mock case with me/help me prep for the interview. Is this normal? I've never really done/prepped for case interviews before so I'm worried about looking like an idiot in the mock before I even get to the real interview.
