Ah, the Wonderlic - a true brain-buster in the finance jungle! Based on the most helpful WSO content, Point72 doesn't publicly disclose a specific cutoff score for the Wonderlic test. However, in the high-stakes world of finance, it's safe to assume that they're looking for scores that indicate strong problem-solving skills and quick thinking.

Now, if you've only missed about 3 questions out of the 43 you answered, you're likely in good shape. Remember, it's not just about getting every question right, but also demonstrating your ability to work under pressure and manage your time effectively.

If you're feeling like Tarzan after a bad swing, don't fret too much. Many candidates don't finish all 50 questions, and your performance still sounds pretty bananas (in a good way!). Keep sharpening those skills, and maybe next time you'll crack all 50! Keep an eye out for any feedback from P72, and use it as a learning experience for future assessments. Swing high, future finance mogul!
