Trading Interview Prep

I've been applying to prop firms in NY and Chicago and need help on how to prep for the math portion of the interviews. How can I prep myself for mental math and brain teasers. I'm not sure what to expect and how fast I should be expected to answer mental math questions

 

This was a good book when I did the interviews with banks(quite a while ago).

 

1) You are the smartest one in the room. (Have some confidence.)
2) No one else has a stitch of clothing on. (They are all, and only, humans.)
3) If you answer their questions *as*if* your thinking could
-- save them money
-- reduce risk
-- alleviate a headache

...you'll do okay.

So -- what do you bring to the table, at a naked corporate picnic?

 

lol, good grief. The OP did mention he was applying to firms in NY AND Chicago. In NY that could be gotten away with...But in Chicago? Hmm. (The clothing thingy, naked corporate picnics etc.)

 

A blindfold for yourself and aprons for everyone else.

 

Kinda like "two-bagger" thoughts from days of olde....?
