BCG test - anyone passed it?

I'm taking the test in 3 days but I have no idea how to prepare or where to start. Me and job tests don't really go well and I've lost many applications due to poor performance on the test.

I'd genuinely appreciate it if someone who passed the test could share their insight and advice.

First of all, you should have access to a practice test. I highly recommend taking it to get a feel for what it's gonna ask you.

The main thing is time management IMO. You gotta make sure you're able to fully articulate your thoughts and move through the pace of the case well, and be prepared to give your final wrapup at the end (as a short recorded video). Some of the linked threads above will have more info.
