BCG London internship timeline

I've recently completed the quantitative test for BCG London. The deadline was yesterday (Thursday 29th Jan) at midnight. I was wondering what the recruiting timeline for the London internship is like. As in if I get the first round (very long shot), will I hear about it today? and if I don't, does that mean I am rejected?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, specific details about the exact timeline for BCG London internships after completing the quantitative test are not explicitly mentioned. However, in general, consulting firms like BCG often follow a structured recruiting process. After completing a test or application, candidates typically hear back within a few days to a week regarding the next steps, such as first-round interviews.

If you don't hear back immediately (e.g., today), it does not necessarily mean rejection. Timelines can vary depending on the volume of applications and internal processes. It's advisable to remain patient for a few days and check your email regularly for updates. If you don't hear back within a week, you could consider reaching out to their recruitment team for clarification.
