Colloquio
The Initial testing is difficult, difficult to complete in the two hours as it was very long. There is 3 questions on murex itself at the start. Make sure you have these researched. Then there is 5 compulsory logic questions followed by a choice of three sections from 5. Each section consisted of 10 questions and you could choose from 2 IT sections, 2 finance sections and 1 maths section. You do not need to have in depth work done for each of these sections, just pick the ones that suit you. The questions do not seem to change year after year so a lot of the questions listed by other people are relevant.
