Hello,

I just received an email from McKinsey that I have the opportunity to do the exam in less than two weeks.

I am struggling with the redrock study in terms of even collecting the data in the simulation and I get lost easily.

Are there any coaching in terms of this part of the exam even privately?

Hi there,

Q: I am struggling with the redrock study. Are there any coaching in terms of this part of the exam even privately?

I just updated the Redrock videos in the McKinsey Solve Combo I created to include the 2024 Redrock updates. It now includes 9 videos on the Redrock and a full walkthrough of a Redrock simulation, indicating what to do to maximize your performance in every step. If you want you can check it out at the link below:

Good luck!

I do not offer that service. But most of the top ranked coaches do - look at their profile, check which ones are focusing on Mckinsey or mention that kind of preparation.

Hi there,

I would go for a combination of simulation software and coaching support. You can work through the simulation with a coach to make the most out of it.

Happy to help!

Cheers,

Florian
