Optiver Trading Intern - Quant Assesment
I applied to a quant trading internship at Optiver about a week ago and just got an email from HR to complete the quantitative assessment. The test is 8 minutes of speed arithmetic that's 80 questions long (yikes), and a 17-minute long quantitative skills test (assuming this is word problems or?). Does anyone have any insights on how I could best prepare? Honestly a little scared - I have a background in applied calc and statistics(econ major, computational data science minor) so I'm ~good~ at math BUT I'm not great at doing it fast and in my head (but I mean who is really). I read through some forums that gave me an idea about what the 80 question section was going to be like but I'm a little lost as to what the "quantitative skills test" is going to entail. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Literally everyone who trades there.

This is representative of the 80q test.
The quantitative skills test is probably referring to their sequences/series test of which you'll also find a bunch of examples throughout this forum.
