Top 50 Brainteasers

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I focus on the Top 50 brainteasers?

The Top 50 represents the most frequently encountered brainteasers and quant interview questions at leading trading firms. These questions appear repeatedly across different firms because they effectively test the core analytical skills that traders need. Mastering these gives you the highest return on your preparation time.

How should I approach the Top 50 collection?

Start with the questions you find easier to build confidence and develop your problem-solving patterns. Then gradually tackle the harder questions. We recommend filtering by difficulty and working through easy questions first, then medium, and finally hard. Also consider practicing questions from your target firms to tailor your preparation.

Are these the same brainteasers asked at every trading firm?

While the Top 50 are the most commonly asked quant interview questions across the industry, each firm has its own preferences and variations. Use the firm filter to see which questions are associated with your target firms. This helps you prioritize the most relevant questions for your specific interviews.
