Hi All,

Hi Anonymous,
as previously mentioned, that would depend on the expert. In general terms, it’s likely most will use their own cases as:
Personally, for the previously mentioned reasons, I use my own cases.

Hey there!
I can only speak for my approach here, but I tend to to both. In most cases, I find cases from PrepLounge fairly solid, and I adjust the difficulty based on the candidate's experience and performance. Alternatively, I give some standard BCG cases from past projects of mine (pretty easy once you have worked on the actual case).
Hope you find this helpful.

Most of the PrepLounge user will have at least scanned through the cases on this site... Therefore, I always use my own.
Guess it's up to you/the Expert. Just write to the expert before scheduling the meeting and ask them.
I use my own cases.
