two sigma code test

I have a code test coming up soon for Two Sigma (for a quant intern position) and I was wondering if anyone here who has been through the process has any advice on what to expect and/or how best to prepare.

Thanks in advance.

Haven't seen the two sigma test, but I'm guessing it's similar to any programming interview questions. Get yourself a programming interview book, and figure out how to do your basic stuff (reverse a linked list, delete/add from linked list - interviewers love lists, transverse a binary tree, implement a quicksort or mergesort, etc.) In general I think the tests tend to focus on simpler, yet lesser known parts of the language. Know how to do a bit test. Anything you'll be asked to implement will fall under a handful of problems, you'll just need to figure out which one. Are you a Java or C/C++ person? not knowing C is definitely a disadvantage for interviews, if you don't know them, figure out how to use pointers.
