BAT Summer Intern Challenge: Get a sneak peek at Bloomberg’s new finance training product
Bloomberg is hosting its second annual BAT Summer Intern Challenge on Thursday, July 31st, 2014. BAT test takers who take the test between May 1st through July 25th and score in the top quartile will receive an invitation to one of the regional events in New York, London, Hong Kong or Toronto.
This year’s event features an exclusive first look at Bloomberg’s new finance training product, which is set to release in the fall. In addition, all attendees will receive complimentary access to the new product upon release.
The BAT is available for free during scheduled sessions at a university or Bloomberg office or 24/7 online from home for $39 USD.
To sign up for a physical session or the online version of the BAT, click here.
Yea I would only do it if it was free again.
This sounds good Does anyone else have experience with the BAT?
Took the BAT in April at my school. Got a 620 (94th percentile). Included 8 sections, all multiple choice. While yes you will have to actually think, it wasn't all that bad. There is a 2 hour time limit (I finished with 2 minutes left while many others did not finish)
I took this at my school as well, actually ended up in the Top 5 Americas. The whole point of the BAT though is to connect you with employers, but even with a high score like that, nada. Maybe some will come during recruiting season but nothing so far.
I'd still recommend taking it, but only if it's free. Only 2 hours, not a draining exam. Hell, take it for fun.
I took and scored top 5 in the Americas region as well. It is kind of fun and so long as it's free it's something that kind of works passively to help find opportunities. I did not get very many hits but it's interesting to see where you stack up against other finance students.

Are you able to retake the test in case you screw up (not for free obviously)?
If we take the BAT after December 31, having already received acces to the exam with the promotional code, we won't get free access to BMC?
Thanks for this! I took it on Friday. It was an interesting exercise.
