Hi there!
First, good luck!
The online tests across companies and across time are very similar
Format? Somewhat. Content and what's required from you ability-wise? Not at all.
The best way is to really find online tests / questions and practice. Regardless as to whether is a new or old test, the principles are mostly the same:
- Time management (need to think quick)
- Business knowledge/context (incl key formulas)
- Critical thinking (answers that are very similar to each other...clues "hidden" in the text)
- Ability to interpret data/charts
Think of it as a merge of a case and the GMAT/GRE.
You need to be clear on some key case-related and account formulas (margin, growth, breakeven, etc) as well as be good at critically understanding the question (including nuance to questions) and parsing through complicated text with a fair amount of distraction.
You'll also need to be good at chart/graph reading.
The (old) McKinsey PST, BCG Online Test, Bain SOVA test, etc. are all quite similar so leverage resources across all of them.

Hello!
Although I am not familiar with this one test in particular, they are all very very similar -which is an advantage to prep, for sure-.
I would strongly recommend you practice it with the Integrated Reasoning part of the GMAT exam.
There are free exams in the internet that you can use for practice (the one of LBS MBA page, Verits prep, as well as some free trials for courses such as the one of The Economist (https://gmat.economist.com/)

Hi, it usually requires up to 3 weeks to know the result. However, do not hesitate to contact HR without worrying about bothering them: they are there to help
Best,

Hi Anonymous,
Are you familiar with the interview process at MBB? OC&C`s Assessment is going to be very similar.
Basically, to prepare you can use some mock potential test for Bain, BCG, PST (McKinsey), or GMAT, and after every test just look into a solution to see where you have gone wrong. 3-4 mock test it would be enough for you to prepare for the potential test.
I can also recommend you to take at least a couple of sessions with a career coach. It will be great if somebody can help you to point out your strong and weak sides and define the easiest ways for you to achieve the best result. I and my colleagues here are happy and always ready to help you with solving this problem.
Do you need any further help?
All the best,
GB
