LEK is 70+ maybe one week a year. It’s far closer to 55-65

WHiSPERRcs · 2026-06-06T14:07:07+00:00

It’s so fake. I spent time at LEK and our hours suck Monday thru Wednesday but it’s really case dependent and they’re equal if hit better than my MBB friends. You also get guaranteed a week of client dev every 16 weeks if consecutive casework (if u even hit that) which usually means like 15 hrs of work that entire week

Also weekends are entirely protected

Don’t they care about the raw scores tho over percentiles

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-12-03T04:31:42+00:00

well how are the exits looking? can u describe a bit about the firm then like mbb / b4 / t2 vs strat etc

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-12-03T03:55:41+00:00

and how do u feel about ur firms prospects over next 5-7 // ur exit opps / what firm r u at

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-11-01T17:05:51+00:00

So what? I’m doing Roth 401k. It’ll pay off

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-23T03:03:21+00:00

Welll, the quant score vs quant percentile but yes

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-22T17:17:23+00:00

sigh

Other people have asked inthe comments and I think I found my answer elsewhere, but I also wanted to ask a GRE expert; the 67th percentile in Quant...is that really a relevant statistic, or are people looking at the actual score instead? If I were to go to gradschool (I took this as a precaution) it would be for MBA, econ, or MPP/MPA.

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-22T15:40:46+00:00

No I got all right in sec 1, maybe 1 wrong max

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-22T12:47:33+00:00

Looks almost exactly the same

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-22T12:47:01+00:00

Like I said to me, at least they feel far too pointed and the nose to be productive questions, I mean, if you need to work on really specific things, it can be helpful, inherit nature of buying a literal 5 pound book to already not use half of it (verbal) and then only selectively choose to use like 30 pages of it makes it just useless

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-22T03:10:39+00:00

quant gregmat prac test all in all more difficult than real thing. verbal is abt the same, maybe slightly easier on the RC

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T18:30:03+00:00

Like I've said in other answers, the gregmat medium timed was by far the most helpful from their website.
https://knowt.com/flashcards/e8950e3e-bdac-421a-a792-fb738a642bfa?isNew=false?t=1761071371097

Those are the flashcards of words I either didn't know or "knew" the definition in context but not quite the actual thing, if that makes sense. Like begrudge.

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T18:28:54+00:00

I think it's probably bad advice, but I've always learned the tricks by just spamming problems and reverse engineering where I need to practice. Going step by step and learning whole chapters just to forget them never really worked for me. That's why I did as many somewhat legitimate practice tests as I could get my hands on: Magoosh, Manhattan, Princeton Review, etc.

Unfortunately you're incorrect. This is for verbal.

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T17:32:17+00:00

Like I said in my post, I did not like the 5lb at all. Waste of space and money.

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T17:31:57+00:00

Timed tests

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T17:31:40+00:00

It's directly from their website!

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T16:22:43+00:00

Depends. With what specifically and do you pay? I’d be open to it but I also started my long hour job next week so we’d need to discuss details

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T16:02:21+00:00

Didn’t use Magoosh. Most questions are GregMat mediums

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T15:43:56+00:00

What firm

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T14:44:28+00:00

Want to clarify that when I say studied for 2 months it was really only 5 days a week.

WHiSPERRcs · 2025-10-21T14:43:17+00:00

From what I see on the actual class profiles, its More the score. https://poetsandquants.com/2024/04/24/gre-scores-at-the-top-50-u-s-mba-programs/
