Yes, besides numerical reasoning you can expect verbal reasoning, logical pattern recognition, and sometimes spatial/abstract reasoning. It’s a mix rather than only math.
best, Alessa :)

You should be prepared for the same kind of things you prepare for the GMAT on the quantitative section.

Does rejection from the McKinsey and Company case workshop hinder my ability to apply for the open roles in London, and will I be subject to the 12-month waiting period?

Hi I work as a private equity / M&A lawyer in London considering a shift to MBB. My attraction stems from the more commercial / strategic thinking I believe consulting will give me and I can later leverage that to either pivot to (i) industry; or (ii) private equity. Thoughts?
