Are the cases in Case-in-Point realistic?

I've been through many of the cases in Case-in-Point and the cases seem a bit different than the ones in www.consultingcase101.com, which are apparently cases for previous interviews.

Anyone else feels this way? Or am I just over analyzing the situation....

 

I found the interviews much more interviewer-led than CIP lets you think. The problems in CIP are very realistic, but the solutions are not structured enough in my opinion. For me the system he proposes is not gonna cut it for MBB. Use cases from Kellogg and Wharton casebooks and frameworks from Victor Cheng Wharton casebook 2010, that's what I did :)
