Has anyone sat the BNP tests? How did you find them?

I just finished the first one, and it was ridiculous. 37 questions in 12 minutes. Surely they can't expect people to get through all of that to an accurate standard?*



Both numerical and verbal are ridiculous... I have no idea what I have just seen
Good luck!

highly unlikely
What format does Nomura's logical reasoning test follow? Talent Q (getting more difficult as you progress) or Kenexa?

Kenexa. 24 questions in 12 minutes. No time limit per question only overall.

It will take approx 30 mins. To be honest you can't really prepare for it, just make sure you're appropriately dressed and in a quiet environment

Thanks. Are there numerical reasoning questions involved? Or is it only situational?
