Before even being considered, you have to answer at least 11 questions correctly on a 14-question algebra test. The first time I took it, I got 10/14. However, I was sent an email from the company to be allowed to have a re-do, which I appreciate. I was asked to do a phone interview not too soon after, however, did not move on from that point. I did receive feedback from my phone interview, which I appreciate.
