      Somebody else asked the same question, sharing below the answer of another user: no, you can calculate it like this: 23 * x% = 19 and we want to find x%, therefore: x% = 19/23, which is ~82.6%. The reduction is 1-0.826 = 0.174 AKA (1 - 19/23) = (23-19)/23 = 4/23 = ~17.4%

    Hey, I have a quick question on 21:37. The question is asking us to analyze BETWEEN December and April, but you include december in your analysis. I'm just a bit confused bcs I initially thought that the word 'between' means that we need to exclude December and April on our calculation (i think it'll be more suitable if the questions ask us to analyze FROM December TO April).. looking forward to your answer.. thanks

    • @Prepmatter
      @Prepmatter วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks for your question! In a business context, 'between' two time periods includes both periods. For example, if we need to analyze how a company performed between 2020 and 2023, we examine the financials of 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. Hope that clarifies things!

      @Prepmatter 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      You won't be able to pause, as the first face appears immediately after you start the game. However, if you position the cursor in the middle of the screen initially, you should be able to move it to the edge of the mouth right away. Remember, there are 90 faces, so even if you make a mistake on the first or second face, it shouldn't significantly impact the overall outcome.

    Hey! One question with regards to Question 2 (Redrock Study): You have calculated the percentage change. However, the question was about the percentage POINT change. My approach: for summit depth --> (47-10)/10 = 370% for base depth --> (35-8)/8 = 337.5% Therefore, the percentage POINT difference is 370% - 337.5% = 32.5%

    Hey there, I believe the examples under top-down and bottom-up are swapped. Top-down is Generic -> specifics and, Bottom up is Specific->Generic right!!

    • @Prepmatter
      @Prepmatter 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      To make it easier to determine the appropriate approach, in top-down questions, demand is the bottleneck, whereas in bottom-up questions, supply is the bottleneck. In this video, we've covered the maternity clothing market in London, where demand is the bottleneck-meaning the larger the population of women in London, the larger the potential market. We treated the daily revenue of a local gym as a bottom-up question because we assume that a larger gym will attract more people, thus increasing revenues, assuming the demand exists. However, if the city’s population were to double, the gym’s revenues might not necessarily double due to potential constraints like space limitations. Having said that, in many market sizing questions, you can use both approaches to triangulate your results.

      In the real-life assessment, there is no live feedback. In Prepmatter's simulation, at the end of the game, you'll receive your results just as in 13:33 in our other McKinsey Solve video. Before you submit your ecosystem, we highly recommend taking enough time to review the entire food web one last time to ensure that it is sustainable both from environmental conditions and calorie perspective.

    Timestamp 37:24 The question asks, “… if the realistic scenario is realised for all 3 activities”. If this was the case, the likelihood would be irrelevant altogether and a total of 8 + 5 + 4 = 17 species would have been saved. The question should have put the Likelihood percentages given below each graphs into context and how it relates to the animals saved.

      Hi Mohammad! This case interview exemplifies management/strategy consulting roles in MBB, Tier 2, and boutique consulting firms. PhD candidates are highly sought after in consulting, so you don't need an MBA to join top consulting firms. In fact, PhD graduates are considered at the same level as MBA graduates, meaning you'll be joining in a post-MBA role.

  • @TiredParent

    The eating order is unclear in the video: The species with the highest “Calories Provided” eats first…. The eating order is not simply sorted by organising the animals from the highest “Calories provided” to lowest at the very start of the task. When an animal (or producer) is consumed by another animal, the remaining amount of calories left on that Animal may change the “eating order” as the reduction changes "calories provided" of the respective animal. So in this example, if you determine the eating order right at the start by looking at the "Calories provided", you would get: (1) - Great White Shark, (2) - Blue Jellyfish, (3) - Sea Urchin, (4) - Shrimp, (5) - Loggerhead Sea Turtle, and producers do not eat. However, if do the calculations and shuffle the eating order as you go, you will end up getting the following eating order: (1) - Great White Shark, (2) - Blue Jellyfish, (3) - Loggerhead Sea Turtle, (4) - Shrimp, (5) - Sea Urchin, and producer do not eat. So the eating order changes progressively in the process.... This is not clear in the video.

      @astriddymling6917 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Good point but I think you are mistaken in the eating order. Considering the current calories provided as you go, the loggerhead sea turtle should eat last considering after it's been eaten by the shark has the least amount of calories provided (150). Or am I missing something?

  • @TiredParent
    @TiredParent หลายเดือนก่อน

    There is some confusion in the Eating Rules under guidance. Timestamp 3:00 I would recommend the following changes in the wording: Para 1: The species with the highest “Calories Provided” eats first…. The animal eats its “Food Source” with the highest “Calories Provided” in the first instance… providing that the “Calories provided” of the prey satisfies the “Calories needed” of the respected Animal. If the Animal is feeding on multiple sources of food, AND they ALL provide equal amount of calories (e.g. Sea Lettuce providing 3000 cal. and Red Moss providing 3000 cal.), then the Animal will eat both prey equally… e.g. 1,500 cal. from each. Para 3: Then the species with the next highest “Calories Provided” eats in the Ecosystem…. If there is a tie between “Calories Provided” for the Animals (e.g. Sea Urchin providing 2,100 cal. and Spadefish providing 2,100 cal.), then no Animal will take priority as the “primary eater” and will therefore split their food source equally. E.g. Sea Urchin and Spadefish both eat Sea Fan, they would fulfil their calorie need by utilising 50% of the prey’s “Calories Provided”. This information is given at Timestamp 9:46 but not included in the Eating Rules under guidelines, or at least clear enough.

    Hello! Fantastic and informative video; thank you so much! Question for you: Is it important to show all calculations on the calculator in order to get the highest score? For me, doing 170-150 is easy mental math, as is converting .39 to a percentage. Is it ok to just do that in my head, or do you advise using the calculator for everything? Thank you!

    • @Prepmatter

      In this video, we wanted to play it safe and use the calculator every time since the assessment evaluates the candidate’s behaviour. However, we don’t think it would be an issue to perform simple calculations mentally or by pen and paper.

    Hello, is it going to be the same tasks in the McKinsey game, or do they change it?

    • @Prepmatter
      @Prepmatter หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for your question. If you're asking whether the tasks will be the same as those in the video, they will be different, as we're showcasing scenarios our Prepmatter team created. If you're inquiring whether McKinsey changes the questions periodically, we unfortunately don't have visibility on that.

    Team Have one Question that what are indicators in a Case study of Company or for a Product that point at Market Decline? Is there a way know through case study.

    • @Prepmatter
      @Prepmatter หลายเดือนก่อน

      Market decline typically refers to a revenue decline across most (if not all) players in the market. If you inquire about the revenue trends of the client and its competitors, you can gauge whether the issue is market-wide or specific to the client. Unless you have specific knowledge about the product or service outside of the case, you most likely won't know if there's a market decline until you're at the diagnosis section.

    In the ecosystem, is it recomendend to check the calories or the environment monitors first?

      Environment monitors, just like 04:06

    Wouldn't it be safer if we removed the Sea Urchin instead of the Spadefish? They both provide the same calories, but the Spadefish requires less calories so it would eat less of the Sea Fan?

    Hello and many thanks for the video, Deniz! Very enjoyable and educational! I have a question about the first example: Are we not supposed to be dividing the number of babies born in a year by the number of babies per pregnancy and multiplying by the ratio of successful ones?

    • @Prepmatter
      @Prepmatter หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, that would be ideal. I believe I've mentioned keeping it simple by assuming one baby per pregnancy and that all pregnancies are successful. If I haven't, please let me know! I definitely bring this up in our coaching sessions. In the actual interview, you can either write these points down or mention them verbally. Given the detailed nature of these components, you'll need to decide how in-depth you want to be in your approach versus managing your time effectively.

      That's right! As I was drawing the ecosystem, I forgot to draw an arrow from shrimp to red moss (thanks for pointing it out!). But I've factored this into our calculations, and hence, the ecosystem is sustainable!

    In the ecosystem game, what do you recommend to do if we already formed a food web but one of our animals doesn’t comply with the region we selected (ie. different salinity level, different current level, etc)

    • @Prepmatter
      @Prepmatter หลายเดือนก่อน

      The actual game shouldn't be too tricky. Typically, if species meet 1 or 2 criteria in the chosen location, they almost always fulfill the other requirements.

    Why do we subtraction 1 to get the percentage in question 4 under the red rock segment

    • @Prepmatter
      @Prepmatter หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh, that's a method we always use to calculate the percentage difference. For instance, if we want to determine how much higher 120 is compared to 100, we divide 120 by 100, which equals 1.2 or 120%. However, we can't say 120 is 120% higher than 100. Therefore, we subtract 1 (or 100%) from 1.2 (or 120%), resulting in 0.2 or 20%. Thus, 120 is 20% higher than 100. Hope this helps!

    Great video. I did a different approach for first case. First, I calculated total number of pregnant women at a given time point to be 375K. (6M londoners, number of 21-40yo is 1/4 so around 1.5M, out of which est 25% to be pregnant). Noting that total pregnancy duration as 40 weeks or 280 days, I decided to get rid of that factor entirely because I thought it would be plausible for anticipated mothers to buy their clothing ahead of time to make the total duration 1 year instead of 280 days for ease of math. Multipled by average number of visits to store/year as factor of 2, and spending per visit (if asking in monetary format).

    • @Prepmatter
      @Prepmatter หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, this should work too (as long as you can explain some of your assumptions, such as 25% being pregnant etc.).
