Top Questions on Statements and Assumptions
Business schools’ (B schools) curriculums are filled with group assignments and case competitions. Even when students have just joined the B schools, corporate houses try 38 to catch good talent early by promising them internships based on case competitions. These competitions involve solving the problems presented by the organizations, analyzing the challenges they currently face, and presenting solutions in a manner that convinces the organizations’ representatives.
For students who are just joining a B school, the capability to actually solve such problems is quite limited. Because of that, the corporate houses generally are more focused on the presentations made by groups. Hence, the groups that communicate better, most often, win these competitions.

- Mr. Screwwala, a highly successful investment banker, had a career of nearly 25 years. In his circle, he was respected for his straight-shooter image and industrious behaviour. Screwwala loved travelling; he travelled extensively, both for his job and personal interests. He always wanted to share his life experiences with people at large.
He chanced upon such an opportunity when his old friend, Mr. Patel, a well-known publisher, offered Screwwala to publish a book based on his life experiences. Screwwala grabbed the opportunity; however, given his thorough nature, he took a three-year long sabbatical to finish the book.
During that period, Patel guided Screwwala at every step, reviewing every chapter personally. At the end, the book turned out to be a bestseller, and Screwwala became famous.
Patel had a new proposal for Screwwala: he wanted Screwwala to work on a detective novel. Patel promised him good money but proposed that Screwwala would only write the final chapter of the novel, after his co-authors had completed the first nine chapters. Screwwala was surprised at the offer; since he never tried writing anything creative, and definitely not fiction. He wanted to be sure whether he could actually measure up with the co-authors who were established creative writers.- XAT - 2026
