Hi,
Most of the tests proposed by consulting company are GMAT like, you should start from problems taken by the GMAT quantitative part (look for Manhattan guides).
There are also some tests that are more similar to "guided business cases", for which there are other valuable sources online. Feel free to contact me if you need any help and find more out.
Hope it helps,
Luca

Dear A!
- To practice your quantitative skills I would recommend different math, logic, and verbal tests on https://trytalentq.com/how-to-prepare/# and then select "Elements Practice Test". You don´t need to learn them by heart, rather skipping through to get a first impression and a better understanding.
