Scenario
Confluent wants to understand the impact of two onboarding-tutorial variants (original vs variant) on tutorial completion.
Question
Given the tables below, write a SQL query that returns, for each tutorial_variant, the share of signed-up users who reach the maximum step_index (i.e., complete the tutorial) within 7 days of their sign_up_at date.
Hints
Join users with tutorial_events, find each user’s max step, compare to global max per variant, filter by 7-day window, then aggregate.
