The format
What Akuna Capital's online assessment actually looks like
Straight after the application, before the recorded game and the interviews.
Timed sections
Most online assessments split into 3-5 sections, each with its own clock. Speed and accuracy both count.
Adaptive difficulty
Modern formats get harder if you answer correctly, easier if you struggle. Your final score reflects what you can actually do under time pressure.
Pass mark
Akuna Capital sets a pass mark per test type. Below it, you don't progress regardless of how strong the rest of your application is.
Completion window. The first test has come within about a week of applying.
By division. Trading: math and probability tests (mental math, then probability, in the 2026 cycle; sequences and probability bets on one clock for 2027). Quant research: a Python coding test, then a recorded round of math questions.

How to handle it. Count winning and losing outcomes first, then scale the payout.
How to practise
Drill the skills Akuna Capital's test measures
Akuna Capital uses Akuna Capital online tests, a format we don't imitate. These practice tests drill the same underlying reasoning skills, timed and scored, so the day-one experience still feels familiar.
- Core-skills practice. Numerical, verbal and logical reasoning at graduate level: the skills under Akuna Capital's test, without pretending to be its interface.
- Provider-true difficulty. Item difficulty mirrors the band the real tests sit at, so your score means something.
- Coaching, not just a score. "You are spending too long on table-data questions" beats "you scored 68%". Specific advice per weak section.
- Percentile benchmarking. Your score placed on a modelled US graduate norm curve, so you know if 70% is excellent or worrying for that test.

Time management
Five moves that protect your score
- 01Set your own clock per question. Divide section time by question count. Move on when you hit your per-question budget, even if you are mid-thought.
- 02Read the question before the chart. Half the work in numerical is finding the right number in a table. Knowing what you are looking for cuts the time in half.
- 03Use "Cannot Say" generously. Verbal reasoning rewards strict reading. If the passage does not say it, the answer is "Cannot Say", not your own inference.
- 04Skip the impossible ones. Most tests do not penalise wrong answers more than skips. If you cannot see it in 20 seconds, flag and move on.
- 05Practise the exact format, not a generic stand-in. Akuna Capital online tests has its own rhythm, and a generic reasoning test is not the same. Intervyo's simulation is calibrated to this format, so you rehearse the real thing under real timing rather than a generic aptitude set.
