MBB Final Interview Round Tips? I've failed in the final round before...

I've in full-time recruitment right now. I have gotten to a final round with an MBB twice before (once for summer internship recruitment and once for full-time), and failed both in the end. The cases given were a bit more vague (i.e. little data for example). I got little / no feedback after the final round rejection.

I feel like I have the table stakes skills to get the job (as evident by first round performances). What is the differentiator for final rounds, in your mind?

How should I approach more vague / nontraditional cases? What are they looking for there?

Any insight is appreciated! Thank you so much in advance.
