Consulting test

Hi I'm wondering if anybody has had experience taking "online aptitude tests" at boutique consulting firms. Basically had a phone screen and theyre giving me this test (1.5 hours) before a final round. What should I expect here?

Management Consulting LinkedIn Review

“Jaden has been incredibly helpful with reviewing my LinkedIn profile and supporting me through the application process. I really appreciate the time he takes to catch up with me, understand my current pace, and offer guidance that feels relevant to where I am right now. His feedback has helped me feel more confident about how I present myself and approach applications. It has been reassuring to have someone so approachable, supportive, and willing to help me keep moving forward at a pace that suits me.”

Management Consulting Mock Interview

“Adam was extremely clear and structured in his communication, which was particularly helpful as market sizing was a type of case that I had never practised before (and have interviews coming up where I have to use it). He explained how to approach the problem step by step, including which clarifying questions to ask, how to structure the calculations and how to approach the maths logically. His explanations were easy to follow and I came away with a much better understanding of how to tackle market sizing questions in future interviews.”

Really depends on what company it is. I've had everything from algebra tests to excel and powerpoint tests.

Thanks brian. Any other input? Would practicing using the Mckinsey PST sound like good prep?
