Marshall Wace - Investment Analyst - Summer Internship - Final Round Interview/Tests

Hi everyone, I have been lucky enough to make it to the final round of Marshall Wace's Investment Analyst internship recruiting process involving a 90 minute test and face to face interview, I was wondering if anyone who has had a test for a hedge fund could offer any insight to what could be asked?

I am assuming:

Stock pitches Aptitude-esque tests Brainteasers Technicals

Could anyone offer anything in terms of the expected level? Much appreciated,

Y

Applied for Hong kong, but I think the test is the same. I heard its similar to a stock pitch, where they give you a company and its financial statements and you’re supposed to give your thoughts
