BCG "Quantitative Math Test" / GMAT like

BCG Online Test

Hello everyone,

Does anyone have any advice regarding BCG's online test?
- How is it structured?
- How to best prepare for it?

Apparently it is similar to GMAT and/or the McKinsey problem solving test. Practice materials would be highly appreciated!

Best,
Rob

Hi,

There are 2 types of BCG tests:

GMAT-like test with questions similar to GMAT
Online Test that is based on a case and has the questions closer to PST

I have uploaded both test samples here (Online test is about airlines). I've also added BCG written case sample (Next round) and Bain written case:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zor4m49eyx5qxal/AABeUN6mtiGkWhEklRjszX2Oa?dl=0

As for particular recommendations for online test:

Try to find as many people in your country as you can who have done the test. Ask them for the topic, industry, and questions they remember. For example in one of the countries there was a test about airlines and reading a couple of articles / company reports / wikipedia articles with industry terms could significantly improve performance
Try to practice tests with strict time-management. McKinsey PST from the official web site and all mck and bcg -like tests you can find online
Additional resources can be GMAT Integrated reasoning from the official guides and apps if you feel that you are not p[erforming well
As far as I remember calculator is allowed on BCG test. Make sure you know how to simplify calculations and use it fast

Best!

Hi Rob,

I agree with Vlad; as additional elements on BCG online tests:

Commit to a time for each question, and go on if you surpass that time. If you do not set discipline, you will end eating too much time for some questions (these tests sometimes are actually structured to have some questions it is better to skip and review at the end). If time allows, you can then go back to the questions at the end.
Practice a lot of math before – it is normally a key component of all the tests
Use elimination process when in doubts in multiple choice question
Practice graph interpretation
Practice quick reading and quick understanding of key information only

Finally, remember you get penalized for wrong answers and should adapt your approach accordingly.

Best,

Francesco

Hi!

To add on top of previous comments, in a nutshell: very similar to GMAT, use that to prep!

Cheers,

Hello A!

The BCG online case is very similar to a regular case the only difference being that your direction in the business case is guided by the questions being asked. So it will be similar to an "interviewer-led" case format. There are a lot of resources online for case solving and all you need to do is Google. If you want to sharpen your case skills in general I would recommend Victor Cheng's Case Interview Secrets by Victor Cheng and his book.

However, since the BCG Online Case is also a single-choice test, you can also use this format to your advantage. You’ll receive+3 points for correct answers and -1 for wrong answers. Currently, the inofficial cut-off score is below 70-75%.

Message me if you have any other specific questions and all the best!

Best,

André

BCG typically shares an example test when the invites go out. If you have not received that, you should check-in with your local recruiting contact.

Hello,

In case you have already started your preparation for case interviews and good at reading charts, analytical thinking, and mental math, then BCG potential is an additional of probably an hour as what you should plan for.

Basically, to prepare you can use some mock potential test, and after every test just look into solution to see where you have gone wrong. 3-4 mock test it would be enough for you to prepare for the potential test.

Do you need any further help?

Cheers,
GB
