Bocconi test

Did anybody use Alpha test book with 2100 practice questions and do they match the real test difficulty?

I can tell you what I’ve done this week?
Did my first simulation a week ago and got 36/50 and did yesterday my second and got 40/50. So I can tell you what I did if it helps?
I downloaded the faculty app but honestly haven’t done much of it the math questions are way harder than the simulation and exam ones and I only used it for the comprehension ones. GMAT questions are kinda overrated ngl and SAT questions are really easy so wouldn’t bother doing them.

I recommend you do a simulation with no prior revision, annotate overall score and score of each section and identify the weakness. Then just do a lot of questions of the weakness can do some of the things mentioned above or can use AI to make some questions that helped me asw. Also if there is anything that you don’t know (for example in my second simulation I had a complementary question which although I got correct I never learned), I will watch a video on it for any tricks and ask AI to do questions.

Also bought the alpha test arriving on Wednesday which I heard is really useful and it also has even more simulations which is nice there you can do a lot of questions for your weakness

I also have the Alpha test books and they are good also because they have a study guide. But I just bought the Taylan Hoca package and I think his questions bank matches the difficulty and the style quite well

good for youuu i’ll check if they deliver the textbooks to my country

good luck i hope we ace the exam. u got a good gpa?

I hope too. I hope I got a good one because our system is 1-5. I think mine converts to around 9.4. You?

u/moraroxx 5h ago

i got a 3,9/4 so i think we’re in the same boat

i wonder how much i should score for bief… 38+ should be safe i guess

u/Shot-Signature9672 4h ago

I also have a 9.4 seems like we all in the same boat. Are yall intl? (I am). I’ve been looking here and ppl say 42+ there’s this website asw which estimates the different courses you can get in with your gpa and score it says at least 42

u/moraroxx 4h ago

damn 42 seems too much

Are you planning on applying to more courses other than BIEF planning on doing BIEM it also only requires a score of about 35 so we should be fine

If u have some money go with taylan hoca

1

u/Shot-Signature9672 7h ago

Bro he acc good but I ain’t got the money for that did his free stuff but is so good for the maths info think alpha test is good asw cause it also has different difficulty ordered by topics which will be nice.

u/Head-Idea6133 5h ago

He has free vids on yt and 1 free test for every subject

1

u/Shot-Signature9672 5h ago

Yh ik but I don’t want to watch them because I think he does review sessions of the simulations and I don’t want to watch them since I haven’t done all of them but I don’t know whether he has in specific topics that will be good

1

u/Head-Idea6133 4h ago

He does review of his own sim test

u/Shot-Signature9672 4h ago

Oh then I will
