This is the best guide that I have ever seen for an assessment. The Imbellus Game is very different from other consulting assessments, and Francesco's expertise shone through as I studied the guide. It started with a bit of background on why the Imbellus test is used instead of the PST. It then goes onto describe the game and what is involved so you will know exactly what to expect on the day. The guide then provides tips on how to master the game and score very highly. Finally, it provides support and guidance on what a candidate can do to improve their skill level. Thanks very much Francesco, with this guide I can be confident in succeeding with McKinsey!

This guide appeared to be extremely useful. Firstly, the material helped me to prepare a strategy on each game in advance. Secondly, I stopped worrying that I would not be prepared enough. Finally, I liked the advice the author gives to develop problem-solving skills. I successfully passed the game and moved to the next round. Thank you!

Very helpful in understand what to expect from the game. I do think the guide could be structured slightly differently and a bit more detail could be added, but for a quick review, the hacking slides were amazing

After having been invited to take Solve, I came across Francesco's guide when looking for ways to prepare for the digital assessment within my limited time budget (never trust anyone saying you can't prepare for things ;)). I found all of the information super helpful for the following 3 reasons: 1) I used Francesco's scenario hacks and additional resources (Excel spreadsheet) to really focus on the two key scenarios (these were also exactly the ones I had when taking the test about an hour ago) and prepare my strategies and note-taking structures. More specifically, I carefully went through all of the guide's information for both scenarios and summarised everything in a one-pager scenario "cookbook" that I placed in front of me before taking the assessment. It did not only massively calm my nerves, but I also knew exactly what to do for the first scenario. The automated excel was also a game changer in quickly collecting and prioritising the relevant information, which is probably one of the biggest challenges otherwise. I would recommend using a separate laptop for the spreadsheet to avoid wasting time and process score points switching screens. 2) Although probably not needed in the recent versions of the assessment, it's really good to know that the guide also includes scenario hacks for the other less likely scenarios. This way, I was able to prioritise the first two scenarios in my preparation, knowing that if needed, I could always pull out the most important information needed in case I would face any of the other. 3) The guide offers additional useful information on how to generally improve on the tested skills that could also be useful for other future digital assessment tests (that are likely if you are not only applying to McKinsey ;)). Thank you very much Francesco!

I strongly recommend this guide for 2 main reasons: 1/ It provides a clear explanation of the game and skills tests, which makes us feel very confident before taking it 2/ It provides a clear step-by-step roadmap of 7-8 key actions to go efficiently through the game, on top of key tips and advice from previous test takers. Thanks!
