We had a hard time to follow the course of the Case and don't think that this is necessarily a beginner case - just a comment not a question :)

Not a Beginner Case

Hi Gloria,
I appreciate the input! (As I'm sure Preplounge does too).
However, this case is definitely beginner. It's a very straighforward (linear) case, not touching on complicated topics, and with simple charts/graphs/math.
In my view it is categorized correctly…make sure you continue your case prep as it gets much harder than this!

Hello Gloria!
Which parts of it you found more challenging?
After years coaching candidates with really different backgrounds, I have realized -to my surprise- that different people struggle with different things, and it´s harder than you imagine to rate cases as “beginner” or “advanced”.
Cheers,
Clara

Thanks, Ian. I only did intermediary and hard cases before but here I got lost :P
Ah! That's totally fair! Sometimes we just get tripped up :) Some cases are easier/harder for different people! Also, sometimes cases aren't quite as linear/logical as we might expect! Thanks for your input btw!
