Hey Mohamed!

For OC&C's online test, you'll typically encounter two main components as you've described:

1. One-Way Video Assessment:

  • Preparation: Practice common behavioral questions like "Tell me about yourself," "Why consulting?" and "Why OC&C?"
  • Tips:
    • Be concise: Keep your answers to around 2-3 minutes each.
    • Structure your answers: Use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to frame your responses.
    • Practice recording yourself: This can help you get comfortable speaking to the camera and refine your delivery.
    • Speak clearly and confidently: Enunciate clearly and avoid fillers like "um" or "like."
  • Check: Test your equipment beforehand (camera, microphone, lighting) to ensure everything works smoothly.

2. Numerical Based Multiple-Choice Assessment:

  • Preparation: Practice basic arithmetic, percentages, ratios, and data interpretation questions.
  • Tips:
    • Speed and accuracy: Time management is crucial. Aim to answer each question within a minute.
    • Practice mental math: Work on quick calculations to save time during the test.
    • Understand the format: Familiarize yourself with different types of numerical reasoning questions, such as calculating percentages, interpreting graphs, and working with ratios.
    • Use logical deduction: If you're unsure about a question, eliminate obviously incorrect answers to improve your chances of guessing correctly.
  • Mock Tests: Consider using online practice tests from resources like GMAT or GRE prep materials, as they contain similar question types.

Preparation for both components involves getting familiar with the format, practicing common questions, and improving both your numerical and verbal reasoning skills. Good luck with your OC&C test!
