Three steps.

What is the CIMA Management Case Study exam?
MCS is the second case study exam in the CIMA/CGMA Professional Qualification. It tests management-level decision-making and your ability to produce commercially focused recommendations using the pre-seen context and unseen tasks.
How is MCS different from OCS?
MCS requires more management-level judgement and commercial application. Strong answers analyse the situation, prioritise issues, evaluate options and make clear, justified recommendations while applying the pre-seen throughout.
What does the TCS MCS course include?
The MCS course includes pre-seen guidance, six exam-standard mocks covering 60+ sub-tasks, suggested answers and answer plans. Premium students also receive 20+ mock-aligned masterclasses that explain the theory, logic and case application.
Do you provide an MCS study plan?
Yes. Enter your exam date in the free public MCS planner to compare weekly Essential and Premium study plans covering six mocks, with two rest days before your exam. Paid-course students can use the interactive study plan tool in their dashboard to save completion progress.
Are the mocks written in the style of the real CIMA exam?
Yes. Six exam-standard mocks cover 60+ pre-seen specific sub-tasks across the key MCS syllabus areas, helping reduce knowledge gaps and build realistic exam technique.
Do you offer a pass guarantee for MCS?
Yes, with the Premium Course. If you score 70-79 in the MCS exam, you can claim free enrolment and updated resources for the next sitting.
Can I use the course if I came through FLP or an exemption route?
Yes. The Premium Course builds applied P2, E2 and F2 understanding through the masterclasses and answer plans aligned to each mock rather than teaching theory in isolation.
How long can I access the course?
Essential and Premium access lasts for the relevant exam window. For example, a May/August course remains available until the August MCS exams are completed.
