Hi there,

That is definitely a good score and way above average, however, there are other factors as well that play a role:

  1. The Ecosystem Score
  2. The time you took for each
  3. The process score based on 100 different variables that are tracked
  4. In some offices, your resume and referrals play a role as well. In a few, the Solve Game is evaluated in combination with the first round

Fingers crossed for a positive outcome!

Cheers,

Florian

Hi there,

I think this is an interesting question that may be relevant for many people. I would be happy to share my thoughts on it:

  • Overall, they sound like good scores – not very good ones, but most probably, it will be good enough to pass the cut-off.
  • Still, it is difficult to say what a "good" score on the McKinsey Solve Plant Defense assessment would be, as it depends on the specific role you are applying for and the level of competition for the position. McKinsey does not publicly disclose the cut-offs or scoring criteria for its assessments, so it is not possible for me to say whether your scores would be considered passing or not.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to address your specific situation, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

It sounds like you did fine. You were above the minimum threshold in all maps.

They will also take into account your performance in the Ecosystem game and how you got to the final result. 

Additionally, they might also assess other parts of the application in terms of the screening, so overall you will still need to get a final confirmation from their side to be sure you passed.

Good luck!

Hi there,

Nicely done! Yes, it's enough to ‘pass the test’ - now you just need to impress them on paper and hopefully later in person.

Best of luck! Keeping my fingers crossed!

Congrats - that should be good enough to pass. Consider they also evaluate other parts of your application but on its own you should be proud.

Hi there,

Yes, it is a good score.

Now, they will assess that good score across your overall profile/application.

Fingers crossed for you!
