BCG CCA vs Casey — the new and the established
CCA is BCG's newer evaluator that blends a case with a recorded communication assessment. Casey is the established chatbot screen. Both run in parallel in some offices.
| BCG CCA | BCG Casey | |
|---|---|---|
| Format | Live or asynchronous case + structured video | Chatbot case + 60s video |
| Duration | ~35–45 minutes | ~25 minutes + video |
| Communication weight | High — explicit communication rubric | Moderate — video alone |
| Where used | Pilot offices, expanding | Standard in most offices |
| Skills tested | Case + clarity + verbal synthesis | Case + math + brief video synthesis |
| Best preparation | Structured spoken answers, live case practice | Casey simulators, case math, video answer drills |
Takeaway
If you face CCA, invest more time in spoken delivery and live case rhythm. If you face Casey, invest in math comfort and tight written structure. Skills overlap but the rubric weights are different.
