Started this thread because I've got a growth equity interview coming up at Susquehanna growth equity and noticed that there are likely statisitcs/brain teaser questions. After searching around for a bit, I noticed there aren't many great resources to practice these questions, such as the 400 question guide for IB. So if anyone has any statistics, expected value, brain teaser questions or links to places to practice, would greatly appreciate it as this thread could be a great resource to anyone needing to practice such questions for interviews. Will SB anyone that is helpful. Thanks guys and gals
