For the McKinsey Solve assessment
Your Solve Pass does not expire. Your Solve Pass stays active for as long as CaseStar offers the Solve simulators.
Use your own sitting scores to track progress.
Sit 6 times and each sitting costs about €11.50. Sit more and each one costs less.
Your free full sitting of Red Rock, Sea Wolf and the 20-minute Lab includes its full review for 72 hours. The Pass is for sitting again and keeping every review open.
Candidates report one Solve sitting of 65 to about 95 minutes. €69 buys as many rehearsals as you need first.
Confirm with your recruiter when you may apply or sit again; your office’s policy is the one to follow.
If Solve is all you are preparing for, the Solve Pass is the product. Live case interviews are a separate pack.
Original CaseStar practice informed by candidate reports. Your scores describe your work here.
We will not claim a pass rate or a decile, a score McKinsey would give you or a promised result. See how free Red Rock practice compares.

Inside the Solve Pass
A real Red Rock sitting, then one marked question taken apart: the slip, the corrected answer and the method to carry into your next paper.


Inside this practice sitting
The calculation Annual rate = (2024 population ÷ 2020 population)¼ − 1.
Check the result Badger declines, so the annual rate is negative. A projection at that rate must stay below the 2024 population.
For an exact answer, collect the endpoint figures from the population table; do not estimate them from the gridlines.

One question. The full working.
A generated CaseStar paper with an illustrative answer, marked by our Red Rock grading engine.
By what percentage did total population change between 2020 and 2024? Round to two decimal places.
| Species | 2020 | 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Mule Deer | 499 | 634 |
| Red-tailed Hawk | 194 | 147 |
| Moose | 251 | 323 |
| Jackrabbit | 343 | 264 |
| Beaver | 391 | 468 |
| River Otter | 210 | 151 |
| Total individuals | 1,888 | 1,987 |
The submitted answer
4.98%
Uses the ending total as the base.
The corrected answer
5.24%
Uses the starting total as the base.
(1,987 − 1,888) ÷ 1,888 × 100 = 5.24%
The change is 99 individuals. Measure it against the 1,888 you started with.
Carry this method: add the totals first, then divide the change by the starting total.
This illustrates one marked question. It is not a candidate result or a McKinsey score.
After the first miss
Your review
Names the habit
A wrong answer is traced to the habit behind it, once, in plain words: here, averaging the rates where the totals should be added up.
Your plan
Aims the next day at it
The next Red Rock day is set on that habit and carries one rule into it.
The ruleFor overall growth, add up the totals, then grow the total. Never average the rates.
A fix drill
Clears it only when all three are right
Three short questions on new numbers. Fixed, and the miss leaves your plan. Not yet, and it stays there.
A fresh sitting
Checks it carried over
A drill checks the drill. A new full sitting on a new paper shows whether the habit held under the clock.
One example of the loop, written from the product’s own rules; not a candidate’s result. With the Pass it runs after every sitting, for as long as you keep sitting.
