What is the PSG?

The McKinsey Problem Solving Game, explained.

The McKinsey Problem Solving Game (PSG), part of the broader Solve assessment, is a simulation-based test designed to evaluate critical thinking and complex problem-solving skills. McKinsey & Company uses it during recruitment to identify candidates with the analytical mindset to succeed in consulting.

The 2026 version focuses on three live scenarios: Redrock Study Task, Sea Wolf, and the new Sustainable Futures Lab. Candidates receive either a 65-minute or 85-minute version depending on their region and role.

2026 PSG Scenarios

Every scenario, fully covered.

We provide practice material and solutions for every live module in the 2026 McKinsey Solve assessment.

Module 1 · 35 min

Redrock Study Task

The second scenario in the 2026 assessment. You read a structured report and answer math-style questions based on its data. Similar in spirit to the legacy McKinsey PST — incorrect answers may incur deductions, so accuracy matters.

Module 2 · 30 min

Sea Wolf (Ocean Cleanup)

Introduced in spring 2024. You design microbial treatments for three ocean sites, matching each site’s ideal characteristics with a combination of three microbes. Played three times with different parameters — strategic alignment is everything.

New · March 2026

Sustainable Futures Lab

The newest module, added to the 85-minute Solve assessment. A behavioural assessment where you join an environmental research team and make 13 sequential decisions under time pressure — testing prioritisation, judgement, and teamwork.

Also covered
Ecosystem Scenario

Ecosystem Builder

Build and maintain a sustainable ecosystem by balancing environmental conditions and predator-prey relationships. Tests your ability to process large data volumes, think systemically, and decide under ambiguity. Full practice tests and the Ecosystem Solver are available — included in our Ultimate Bundle and as standalone products.

Older scenarios

Pre-February 2023 PSG variants — included for reference.

Plant Defense

Defend a plant from pests and diseases by selecting treatments and minimising impact on the surrounding ecosystem. Tests critical thinking, complex analysis, and decision-making under pressure.

Disease Diagnosis

Identify and diagnose an unknown disease affecting an animal population using a vast amount of data, then propose a treatment plan grounded in comprehensive analysis.

Disaster Identification

Identify the type of natural disaster causing animal deaths, then select a suitable relocation site for the surviving population — based on the same data-rich workflow as Ecosystem Building.
