A customer research day starts at 08:30 with three 40-minute retailer interviews followed by two 55-minute distributor interviews. Every interview is followed immediately by 10 minutes of private note capture before the next interview. After the third retailer interview and its notes, the team holds a 30-minute calibration. Lunch is fixed from 12:30 to 13:15, and neither an interview nor its note capture may straddle lunch. At what time does the final distributor interview and its note capture finish?
Check the answer
Answer: C. 15:25
The three retailer blocks take 150 minutes and finish at 11:00; calibration runs to 11:30. A 65-minute distributor block cannot fit before the 12:30 lunch, so both distributor blocks run from 13:15 to 15:25. 15:15 leaves out the final note capture, 14:30 starts a distributor interview before lunch and pushes its notes past it, and 14:20 forgets the calibration.
Question 2: Shares
A support desk logged 2,400 tickets last month. 960 came from enterprise accounts and 600 came from mid-market accounts. The rest came from small business accounts. What share of all tickets came from small business accounts?
Check the answer
Answer: B. 35%
Small business accounts logged 2,400 minus 960 minus 600, which is 840 tickets, and 840 divided by 2,400 is 35%. 54% divides 840 by the 1,560 tickets already counted instead of the full 2,400. 40% and 25% are the enterprise and mid-market shares.

Is the CCA the same as Casey?
No. The CCA is a timed test of reasoning and work style. Casey is a business case run by a chatbot. Your invitation names one of them.
Is this the official BCG test?
No. These are original practice questions in the same style. They are not BCG's questions and do not predict your result.
Can I use a calculator on the CCA?
Yes. BCG says a calculator is allowed, and you can pause between sections.
Can I retake the CCA?
No. BCG says there is no retake, so practice the format before you start the real one.
