Hi,I'm going to take the exam next week and I was wondering how to prepare for the Economics/Finance questions.I heard that these questions can get very tricky. I have all of the 4 books on quant interview questions, but they don't seem to cover these areas extensively. Do you know of any online source that I can use to solve some of these questions?I was thinking to do some CFA sample questions, but couldn't find any adequate source....Thanks

Which books do you have ?

To RoniNYC: the point of giving an exam on Finance/Economics is to actually test whether you have learnt the basics; not whether you can memorize some trick questions from some interview guide books. So, if you have time to prepare, go back to your finance books and make sure you have a handle on CAPM, Black-Scholes, the binomial model, etc. Most people (who have allegedly studied this) don't. Don't worry excessively about how many manhole covers there are in Manhattan or, for that matter, why manhole covers are round. While they are both traditional interview questions, they are unlikely to show up on your exam.
