The potential test's main difficulty is time-related: you need to learn to go fast yet still be accurate. There aren't many practice exams available on the web yet, but a solid '2nd best option' is to practice the PST exam. Those you will find in droves. PrepLounge has some excellent material, which will take you a long way already.
Don't forget also to prepare the quick math calculations; caseinterviewmath.com in particular will rank you by accuracy and speed.
Check PL's material there:

Hope this helps -

From a friend of mine who lately went through the test (of course this is based just on his point of view - he made it through the test succesfully)
I heard it is similar to the MC Kinsey PST - but generally a bit easier and more logic (less math tricks).
This youtube channel is one of my favourite resources for the PST and I believe will be great support for the Potential test as well:

Hi A,
I agree with Guennael, you can use Preplounge tests.
What is more, I suggest using platform myofferprep.com
As far as I know, it was designed by BIG3 consultants and has more than 1000 questions fore practice.
Kind regards,
Egor

I`d like to share my preparation experience with you. Just passed PST and reached the 2nd stage in my hiring process. It was really helpful to prepare for PST on MyOfferPrep platform as there`re different tests with feedback and explanations. Moodle interface`s quite common for me.
Recommended.
Here`s the link to the platform: https://myofferprep.com
