It's very heavily quantitative and as a beginner I really struggled with it (especially in the sort of timeframes interviewers will expect) even when I had all the case solutions. Am I missing a trick?

Is this really a beginner case?
Overview of answers
Hi there,
I'd probably place it a bit more at intermediate or intermediate light. It's not hard, but it is a bit long which would extend the time to solve.
I would second Ian's POV - not a beginner case and definitely not advanced. The math is straightforward though maybe abit tedious and you needed to perform a some quantitative reasoning on the last question regarding value creation needing to remain in Switzerland
Hi there,
would say this one is quite intermediate in terms of difficulty - not super-straightforward, but you will also find a lot more complex cases.

Hi there!
This is indeed rather on the tough side.
You'll develop a stronger understanding of how difficult cases are as you do more.
Here are a couple that you can do that are based on real MBB interviews and which are easy to intermediate:

Hello,
I'd classify this as an intermediate case. But honestly, all cases are tough as a beginner - keep practicing, and you'll be up to speed in no time!
