Financial Mathematics
for Quant Interviews

About the Course

Financial math interviews test whether you can derive pricing formulas, reason about stochastic processes, and implement numerical methods under pressure. This course gives you a repeatable framework: identify the underlying dynamics, set up the pricing PDE or risk-neutral expectation, and verify with limiting cases.

Start with The Playbook — a structured approach to financial math interviews, including notation conventions and quick derivation techniques that save time on the whiteboard. Then build your foundations with 8 concept lessons covering Brownian motion, Ito's lemma, risk-neutral pricing, Black-Scholes, Greeks, interest rate models, Monte Carlo methods, and portfolio optimization.

Finally, practice with 10 end-to-end financial math problems — from deriving Black-Scholes to calibrating volatility surfaces — each with complete derivations, Python implementations, and leveled expectations showing what top firms expect at each seniority.
