Unfortunately, there is no simple answer. Author Kiran Srinivas believes that you can significantly improve your thinking abilities, and this book will force you to think in ways you never have before. By sheer practice, you can increase your ability to think creatively. Many of the puzzles in this book will take hours, if not days, to solve, but be encouraged, a middle-school education is sufficient to answer almost all of the puzzles. There are many interview puzzles, and if you plan to interview at an investment bank, consulting firm, high-tech firm, or in any other related field, absorb what 'Brain Teasers' has to offer, as it can be the deciding factor in getting that offer.
