Hello,

It has been suggested that we as a group frame a study plan for the upcoming 10-15 days, and discuss the topics/questions/tips on the thread as well.

This is what we got so far.

Topics shortlisted : Time and Work (quant), Verbal Reasoning(va) and Logical Deduction (lr)

Time frame : 15 days.

Any thoughts/amendments on the topics / duration or any other suggestions, please reply to this thread.

We plan to finalize the study plan shortly, so please have your say !🍻

An interesting paradigm in quant problems (ratio)

Consider the following application of ratios and proportion as applied to income and expenditure:

Consider income of two persons in the ratio a:b and expenditure in the ratio x:y.
If (obviously) expenditure cannot exceed the income for either a or b, find the condition under which we can determine who saves more ?

For example : Incomes of A and B are in the ratio 4:5 and expenditures are in the ratio 3:4 respectively. If incomes are 400 and 500 and expenses are 30 and 40 respectively, B saves more.
However, in the case incomes are 400 and 500 and expenditures are 330 and 440 respectively, A saves more. A different scenario is observed when incomes of A,B are in ratio 4:5 and expenses in the ratio 5:6.

Can anyone generalize the observations here and the condition wherein we can determine who saves more given 2 persons, expense and income ratios ?

Folks,
here is a book, which is a must read for all MBA aspirants.


'The 10 day MBA' by Steven Silbiger boils down the crux of an MBA into less than 400 pages.

An absolute must read for those seeking more insight into the branches of an MBA education. It also answers the feared 'why MBA?' question if you read closely ! 😉
Read on.

More coming soon. Fundas and study related info coming soon....
