Passed with a top score. The practice cases are the closest thing to the real test I've come across.

C

Charlotte

Passed McKinsey Solve, London

Did three sessions and felt ready. Nothing on the day surprised me.

J

James

Passed McKinsey Solve, US

Redrock Study was the one that clicked for me. By the second run-through I could feel my pattern recognition improving.

P

Priya

Passed McKinsey Solve, Singapore

I was sceptical at first, but the simulation is genuinely close to the actual test format. The Redrock cases in particular were well-designed. Would recommend to anyone applying.

I was really stressed about the Solve but after a few practice sessions I felt so much calmer going in. Thank You!

Passed McKinsey Solve, Milan

Great practice!

Solid prep. Redrock is the one to spend real time on.

T

T.

Passed McKinsey Solve, New York

I'd tried a few other resources but this was the most accurate to the real test. The timing pressure on Redrock felt exactly right.

S

Sara

Passed McKinsey Solve, London

Very helpful. Passed on my first attempt.

K

Passed McKinsey Solve, MENA

The Redrock cases were spot on. Felt like I'd already seen the format before walking in.

D

D.

Passed McKinsey Solve, US

I almost didn't bother preparing separately for Solve but a friend recommended this. Really glad I did — the format is quite specific and practising it made a big difference.
