Nomura Online Assessment

Just did the online assessment for Nomura SA26 and not feeling too confident. Got 9/18 on the numerical reasoning (6 graphs) although i'm sure all 9 were correct. Am I cooked? Think I did much better on the puzzle test however..

I did all 18 but im sure not all of them were correct. On the planning one I completed up to lvl 10, wondering how you guys did on that (BS test IMO btw)

 

awful test, but still not the worst i've done.

I got to Level 9 on that section, not sure if that's a competitive score. I did try and use the least amount of moves throughout though.

 

It should be, especially if you actually made an effort to minimize moves. Cant say the same about myself lmao, I couldn't be bothered to solve it in my head before actually trying it so i got up to like 20 moves in lvl 9 and 10 

 

I answered all 18 and have same thoughts as you on how I did. I got to level 12-13 with the planning. I was surprised I didn't get an immediate automatic report on how i did tbh
