What the test is like

Akuna Capital maths and sequences

Built by HackerRank

Format
Typed mental maths with no answer choices, then sequences, then a coding round. Questions arrive one at a time and you can neither skip nor go back, so a question you cannot do costs you the clock as well as the mark.
Timing
Reported at 80 questions in 8 minutes typed and 24 sequences in 12 minutes. The coding round that follows is reported at roughly 70 minutes for 4 to 5 problems mixing code and probability.
What is uncertain
Reports say the question banks were split by track, so a trader, a quant researcher and a developer see different mixes. No penalty rate is published for the maths.
How to practise
Mental Maths has this exact format as its typed 80 in 8 mode.
