Bridgewater Associates - Brain Teasers/ Math tests

New user to this forum.

Read many comments to the group panel/discussion aspect of the interview format at Bridgewater but nothing conerning the IQ/ Math/ brainteaser aspect of the interview. Applying for an associate role . Can anyone comment on this side of the interview? What to expect for questions and typically how long is the interview day there?

Many Thanks
