Hi there,

Q: I have received the mckinsey game invitation two days ago and I have 10 days to do it( as mentioned in the email). The sooner the better? Or i can do it anytime before the 10 days?

You can do it anytime in the period they mentioned. I would do the test once you feel ready.

You can find an article on the game below with a few tips:

You can check a video simulation at the following link (full disclosure, I am the author) :

Hi there,

Congrats on getting invited to the test!

Feel free to do it at any point until the deadline. What matters is the result, not when you actually did it. If I were you, I'd try to practice as much as possible before the actual deadline. There are several guides online that will help you get an accurate understanding of what to expect in the game.

Best,

Cristian

All the best!

It's not about when you do it but how well. If when you did it made a difference they would tell you in the email they sent.

Answer 5

Congratulations on the invitation! It truly doesn't matter when you do it - do it when you feel ready and before the deadline!

Answer 6

Hi there,

These people are wrong! As long as you do it within 10 days it doesn't matter when you do it!

Highly recommend you use practice material (like Francesco's Imbellus guide) to optimize your chances.
