Hello,
I'm going to apply to BCG London very soon.
What is the type of online test I'm gonna get there? Is it the potential test, the pymetrics test, the online case?
And how can I prepare efficiently for that?
Hi there,
The only way to know for sure is to read the invite email and double-check with HR!
That said, BCG's most common one by far is the casey chatbot! Plenty of materials here on that, but, ultimately, you need to think about it as a combination of a case and the GRE/GMAT :)
To practice, 1) Get good at casing and 2) Run through practice tests/questions!
Only person who can correctly answer that question is the HR/recruiter who will send you the email for the process.
We all can only speculate here.
Having said that, online-case assessment is becoming increasingly common these days in BCG instead of the pymetrics test. It requires preparation and understanding. You should definitely prepare for it. Ideally prepare for pymetrics as well.
But if you want to optimize your prep - then best to first ask HR/recruiter.
Hi there,
You should get an email from HR with the confirmation of the test after you pass the CV screening. In Europe, most candidates who apply for an Associate/Consultant position have to do the BCG Online Case (Chatbot version).
If you want to prepare for the Online Case, you can find a guide at the link below (full disclosure – I am the author ;) ):

Hi!
I'd recommend practicing with GRE/GMAT types of questions. There are several past threads about this on PrepLounge that also contain links to free resources.
Hope this helps.
Best,
Anto
