I have heard that McK stopped using the PST for selecting candidates. Do you have any idea if this is true? Maybe it depends on the location?

Hi Friska. Did you pass your PST? If you did, did you have a pre-screening phone case interview after the PST, but prior to the 1st round case interview?

Yes, I think it depends on where you are located. Some of my friends who studied in the US did not go through PST. However, I did have to go through PST (around November 2016) and I am based in Asia.
Hope it helps!

Agree with @Friska. It seems to depend on location. I am based in Brazil and had to do a SHL on demand test instead of PST
