What worked was blocking it: Mon/Wed Solve, Tue/Thu BCG cases, weekends Bain.
Solve went well. And to answer your other question: yes, another test is coming. Two, actually, which is why I switched to the All-Access Pass last month.
I came to business school from CPG planning to recruit for all three firms. I had a spreadsheet. By week two it was broken: Solve, Casey, TestGorilla, three platforms, almost $500 on top of tuition. A classmate said "just pick one firm" and I almost did.
My first week on the pass I bounced around and didn't improve. What worked was blocking it: Mon/Wed Solve, Tue/Thu BCG cases, weekends Bain. Invites from McKinsey and Bain so far. BCG dinged me after the first round, which stung, but two out of three from one $250 pass is a trade I'd make again.
Happy to share the schedule if it helps anyone.
honestly the best decision this cycle was stopping myself from buying a THIRD test package.
hi! it went well, thank you for checking in :)
honestly the best decision this cycle was stopping myself from buying a THIRD test package. i'm a policy major, didn't even know MBB had online tests until october, and then solve + casey + bain all landed within two weeks. i'd already spent $300+ on separate stuff and rent was due. a recent grad from my dorm (at mckinsey now) asked why i wasn't just using one pass.
first week was chaos, failed two casey cases on the math. started doing a daily drill set every morning and by week 2 the numbers stopped scaring me.
passed all three tests, interviews with two firms!!
The fix was one firm per week, in test-date order.
Went well. Passed Bain and McKinsey; BCG final is next week.
Context for your records: lateral from a boutique strategy firm, referrals at all three, so three tests in one month while billing 50+ hours. Switching formats at 10pm was the real problem. I bombed a Casey practice with my head still in Solve mode. The fix was one firm per week, in test-date order.
One request: a single dashboard across all three firms. I ran a separate spreadsheet for that.
