Calibrated on 312 SolvePrep attempts · 2026

    McKinsey Solve Score Estimator (2026)

    Enter your practice results from any of the three Solve mini-games to get a calibrated 0–100 score band and a next-step plan. Inputs mirror the actual results screens.

    1Section 1 of 3

    Sea Wolf (Ecosystem)

    3 sites · for each, mark attributes in range, whether the desired trait is present, and how many undesired microbes you placed.

    Site 1
    Site 2
    Site 3

    Per site (matches the real results screen): 20 pts × attributes in range + 20 pts if desired trait is present + 20 pts − 20 × undesired microbes. Sites are averaged for your Sea Wolf efficiency.

    Total minutes across all 3 sites (30 min standard / 35 min free).

    3+ attempts gives full confidence; one-offs are partially discounted.

    Red Rock (Case)

    Four scored phases. Enter the % you saw on each — leave blank if you skipped a stage.

    % correct on data analysis (~30% of total).

    % correct on report blanks/dropdowns (~20%).

    % correct on chart type + values (~20%).

    % correct on case questions (~30%).

    Total minutes across all stages.

    3+ attempts gives full confidence; one-offs are partially discounted.

    Estimates are directional, not predictive. McKinsey does not publish actual Solve scores — this tool calibrates against SolvePrep practice outcomes. Use it to prioritize prep, not to forecast a pass. Updated 2026.
