[@matthuang21]

Hey Sameer! So glad you are finding these helpful

[@rangho10]

This video is so perfect Matt! I often find the biggest fear people have in case interviews is making the wrong estimate. But your walkthrough broke it down so well, where your evaluation is judged more so on the reasonable assumptions/possible past learnings through which you developed the estimates, rather than the actual value. A piece of information is discrete (like a stat, or population number), but a problem-solving framework is re-creatable, and displays your ability of getting to that discrete information, and utilizing it correctly. So more so analysis focused than a general knowledge test.

[@matthuang21]

Couldn’t have said it better myself!

Thanks for showing the in-depth and walked thro step -by step on the approach. Would like to know if you can suggestion courses / ways to sharpen problem solving skill? specific on able to think from multiple angles for the approach for junior level.

[@matthuang21]

Next time you have a problem, think about it in a structured way. Try to create a framework, think through the options, consider pros and cons, and try to be MECE. Over time it will come more naturally.

[@joydeepsarkar8879]

Hey, sir I am an average Indian student, not from any elite institution, having profile like 88/85/89 in 10th and 12th and graduation, preparing for the cat from last 2years ,(basically 2years of gap) and a non- tech background, sir with all these I always dreamt of getting into consulting, is it any way possible sir?

[@matthuang21]

You don't need to have a technical background for strategy consulting, but you might need to get into a top MBA program so that you can improve your recruiting chances for consulting firms.

[@NamPham15019]

Thanks Matt, i absolutely love this white board series. Quick question, do you have any framework for general business operation cases? And how about IT consulting cases. What do you think about it? ❤

[@matthuang21]

It’s a bit hard for me to answer without specific examples but I think many strategy frameworks can work for business ops cases

[@thinkingcitizen]

ngl the original 'Shockingly Uncomplicated' guy should have trademarked the phrase

[@matthuang21]

Ngl that would’ve been a smart move
