Overview
Sequences tests are an often-occurring step in trading interviews, and this Medium level is where the patterns start to bite. You are shown a series of numbers, and your task is to identify the underlying pattern and predict the next number in the sequence. Beyond the basics, expect combinations like quadratic growth, alternating or interleaved patterns and Fibonacci-style relations between terms. Questions come in multiple-choice format with free navigation, in a quick 13-question challenge or a full 26-question challenge. The real tests can be equally or more challenging than this level, so perfect your Medium sequences before progressing to the Hard level.
Game Phases
1
Read the question
Each question shows a series of numbers. Identify the underlying pattern in the sequence.
2
Pick your answer
Choose the next number in the sequence from the multiple answer choices.
3
Navigate freely
You can move through the questions and complete them in any order. Skipping is allowed and scores zero for that question.
4
Beat the clock
Pick the quick challenge (13 questions in 12.5 minutes) or the full one (26 questions in 25 minutes). Feel free to use pen and paper, but leave the calculator alone.
Scoring
+1
Correct answer
Each correct answer adds one point.
-1
Wrong answer
Each wrong answer subtracts one point, so only commit when you are confident.
0
Skipped
Skipped questions score nothing, neither for nor against you.
Your score is correct answers minus wrong answers, with skips counting zero. Because a wrong answer costs a point, skipping a sequence you cannot crack beats guessing wildly. The target is 11 out of 13 on the quick challenge and 21 out of 26 on the full one. Hit those consistently and you are ready for Hard Sequences.
