Hi all,
I just got invited to submit an Online Assessment with Bain in the Middle East. I have been invited to the exam before (last year) and did not pass, but am a bit confused by the language of the email I got from HR (see below) because this exam, this year, does not seem like a screening component. I have been given until Sunday to submit, but asked for more time (due to personal reasons - just moved this week, and started in a new role, and juggling a lot of different plates).
Wanted to ask, if I do have to submit by Sunday, how you all would best advise preparing for it?
On-top of that, I am also currently preparing for Round 1 interviews with BCG in the Middle East as well - and know that I should prioritize prep for that (and am actively preparing), which is tentatively slated for next week.
A bit overwhelmed with managing my time, would love advice/feedback from the PL community. Thanks all!

Also, as a question, I got this email from HR: “The assessment is not a test, nor does it require studying. It is merely a corporate assessment on soft & hard skills that can help us further assess you during the interviews. You will not be graded and it won’t contribute to your interview performance.” Should I assume this is a greenlight for an interview?
