Management Test Battery (MTB) Exam?

[Merlin]

Hey folks,

Is anyone here familiar with this exam, or has taken it previously?

I had never heard of it before, but apparently, the MTB is a standardized exam for management-level positions and is commonly used by local and state governments and in some corporations. I've been invited to take the test (which is scheduled for March 1st) and am trying to figure out what I need to do to prepare, if anything.

From what I gather, the exam itself is a two and a half hour simulation that describes a fictitious organization and presents several different scenarios with 80 questions with multiple-choice answers which are weighted to measure problem-solving, leadership, decision-making, interpersonal development, HR management, communication, team building, conflict management, and process improvement skills. But that is about all I know about it. Based on that alone it seems like it should be pretty straight-forward with my background and education, but if I'm going to take the time to do it, I might as well aim for a top score.

I'm curious if anyone here has taken this exam, or one of the related exams (the supervisor test battery and operations management test battery) and can provide any information or tips about it? I couldn't find any online study guides, but I did find one on Amazon which I'll probably pick up just in case.

While this isn't specifically an academic exam, it seems relevant for anyone pursuing a business degree or seeking employment at the management level post degree conferral. I debated posting this here or in the off-topic discussion area, but figured I'd leave it here for now and move it later if it seems like a better fit.

Thanks!
