SolveForge is browser-based practice for the online tests McKinsey, Bain and BCG use to screen candidates before interviews. For McKinsey Solve, it recreates Red Rock Study, Sea Wolf and the Sustainable Futures Lab from publicly described mechanics, with real timers, instant scoring and global leaderboards. For Bain, it has timed numerical, logical, verbal and situational judgement sections, plus full TestGorilla-style and SOVA-style mock tests. BCG guides are live and BCG practice is coming.
It's for people who just got a test invite and have about a week to prepare: MBA students, grads and consultants switching firms. Full prep packages elsewhere run $69 to $129, and a lot of free material still teaches a McKinsey game that was retired in 2025. SolveForge gives you a free scenario for each main game, free guides for every test, and one-time passes from $29 with no subscription. Every question is original, and we're upfront that these are practice recreations, not the real tests.
I sat the McKinsey Solve assessment myself. When the invite came, I went looking for practice and couldn't find anything good: most of it was out of date, overpriced, or didn't feel like the actual games under a real clock. So I built what I wished I'd had. It's rebuilt from what's publicly known about each game, it's honest about what's confirmed and what's just candidate-reported, and it's cheap enough that a stressed candidate can try it free before paying anything. Bain and BCG came next, because people who apply to one of these firms usually apply to all three.
