Hi there,

What is the number of total candidates that will be invited to the AC for Corporate Finance?
What is your guess that CBT minimum score will be?

Thanks

This competition includes also a talent screener. It is noted that the admitted applicants for the other fields in the competition (not requiring tests) where more or less half of total applicants. In that sense, the actual required min. score might be far lower than we expect. I Believe that 29-30/40 might be enough.

Thanks Greg! I have 28, so hopefully is lower 1 point :)

If the Case study is scheduled on 13 May, I hope that the results will be in this week, so we have time to prepare.. As always, it is a very long and painful process...

How many places/candidates were?

I got 30/40 but I believe the min. scrore will be lower for Corporate Finance; Competition law is a different story.
As far as the assessment center I think that the 13th May does not apply for Corporate Finance and Competition Law. The date will be probably be amended to June.
The places are 14*3=42. These will be extracted from 42*3=126 candidates with the highest scores but also fullfiling the eligibility criteria. The latter is very significant because as you can see from the other fields of the competition half of them have been rejected for not fullfilling these criteria (despite of achieving a high score).
That is why I'm suggesting a low score.
Competition Law always achieved great scores, probably due to more familiarity with verbal reasoning (half of the tests' marks)

I had a few points over 30, top-notch match to 7/8 requirements over a resume with +10 yrs experience within corporate finance/IB from bank but I screwed up the talent screener, unknowingly regarding epso requirements (finished login and application in 20 min).

Biffen Mon, 03/23/2015 - 18:22

Btw, what's the case study 13th of may? Is not next step assessment center?

I dont know if they will show pre-admission number of candidates (candidates who will be evaluated on talent screener) or if they will disclose only the assessment candidates. Any one knows?

I think scores will be probably above 35.

Griffen Wed, 03/25/2015 - 22:50

The next step should be the Case Study, which is part of the AC, let's say AC phase 1.
It is mentioned 13 of May. So when they will notify us who will be invited there?

I don't understand why it take so long.. It's a painful process for the candidates as it takes 1 year to get to the final result..

Im confidente i will get it - however i got a low score 26 lol

mishtone Thu, 04/16/2015 - 15:17

So apparently the minimum required CBT score to have the Talent Screener analyzed was of 32 points, and the minimum TS score for AC invitation was of 26. Any lucky fellas here who got invited to the AC?
