A quantitative research case in three phases, then six short cases. A calculator and a research journal stay open the whole time.
Five timed exercises modelled on the genre of analytical-reasoning tests used in consulting screening. Every run scores what you answered and how you worked, and tells you the one thing to change next time.
Scenarios are drawn at random, so a second run of the same exercise is a different case.
A quantitative research case in three phases, then six short cases. A calculator and a research journal stay open the whole time.
Decontaminate three sites: choose what to measure, triage microbes on limited information, commit a trio per site.
Thirteen evolving decisions in a multi-stakeholder programme, scored on the consistency of your style.
Investigate three fishing zones, allocate a fleet, choose the operational levers, recommend.
Pick eight species that form a viable food web for the terrain you are dealt.
Answer keys you can find anywhere. What you cannot see on your own is how you behave under a clock.
Correctness against each exercise's rubric, weighted by how much a question matters. Microbial sites are scored on closeness to the ideal, not just landing inside a range, and the information you see is limited by what you chose to measure.
Derived from what you did during the run:
A picture of the run, the score split, where every point came from, and the single change most likely to lift the next attempt.
Access for 30 days from purchase. Enough for a full cycle of practice before your assessment, with no plan to remember to cancel.
No. CasesTrain is independent practice software. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with any consulting firm, recruiter or assessment vendor. Scenarios, data and mechanics are original, built on widely published case-format conventions. No claim is made that it predicts any specific employer's outcome.
A desktop browser and a connection. Nothing to install. Field Study uses drag and drop, which works best with a mouse or trackpad.
Runs and scores stay in your browser's local storage. Nothing about your practice is sent to a server. The only server call is the licence check at sign-in.
Buy another pass. There is nothing to cancel because nothing renews.
It is on the page you landed on right after paying; that page keeps working. Otherwise reply to your Stripe receipt with the email you paid with and we will send it again.
Email the address on your Stripe receipt within 7 days if the exercises are not what you expected. A refunded key stops working at the next sign-in.
