Brainstorming practice resources

Hey there,

Reach out and I'll send you some case collections you can use to break out the structuring and brainstorming questions for practice drills.

Alternatively, you can also use the PrepLounge case database to practice.

Cheers,

Florian

Adding another resource here on brainstorming techniques that you might find helpful:

• Expert Guide: Mastering Structuring & Brainstorming

I would suggest using PrepLounge's Case Library and practicing brainstorming some of the case questions. You can make many of the framing/structuring questions into brainstorming questions for yourself if you approach them as such.

Oh, I dont know, maybe the Q&A? :)

Additionally, there are plenty of cases, prompts, and other brainstorming exercises on Preplounge!

Partner with other candidates or hire a coach to practice live brainstorming (super important) in addition to self-practice.

Hi!

I would start from common questions: e.g., how can you increase profits / increase revenues / decrease cost, etc.

During a case, I would recommend breaking down the question into smaller components (a mathematical formula when suited) and structure your brainstorming around that.

Hope this helps.

Best,
