Anyone who can help me practice case interviews - I have an interview lined up this Friday and Monday. And I really reallly need this one. Would highly appreciate any leads. (P.S. I have prior experience with BCG (1 yr) but it was more on the backend. Now I’m interviewing for a boutique consultancy firm.)

If you want to work on your quant, get TTP, it’s real good.

Here is the question

there-are-100-students-in-a-school-the-students-are-split-158096.html?fl=notifications#p2818469

I’m trying to understand how a maximum value for an overlapping sets problem is found out

I did not quite get what Karishma from Veritas mentioned. Any clarification is appreciated

FORMULA USED BY GMATGURU-A useful formula for 3 overlapping groups:

T = A + B + C - (AB + AC + BC) - 2(ABC)

I saw your post as well, however, I did not get the doubt.

Alright, so there are two posts

In this one, overlapping-sets-made-easy-205636.html -> Refer to the problem with TV, MP3 and cassettes

This problem is similar to the problem with the teams and hence I referred to it in my post for there-are-100-students-in-a-school-the-students-are-split-158096.html?fl=notifications#p2818469

Basically in the one with TV,MP3 and cellphone problem, Karishma just used the smallest set to be common to both households having cellphones and tv and this way we get a maximum number of households with 3 items as 55

But, in the same problem with teams, we do not follow the same procedure. If we did, we would have 70 as the answer. But that is not the case.

I do understand how others reached at the conclusion after following their posts, but I am trying to understand whats different between these 2 problems

As they both look similar to me

I am able to understand the method they derived 55; I cannot understand the 10 (Minimum)

Maximum can be derived from the formula posted by GMATGuru
