Epic Systems·Software Engineer·Online Assessment (OA)
Jul 2026
Epic Systems SWE online assessment with four back-to-back sections: Math, MIIS, Coding, and a brutal 2-minute drill at the end where you have to answer 10 micro-questions in 120 seconds flat.
- The final section of the assessment gives you 2 minutes total to answer 10 micro-questions. How do you allocate your time across them, and what strategies do you use for scanning, skipping, and guessing quickly?
- How do you pace yourself through the Math, MIIS, and Coding sections so you're not mentally exhausted by the time the 2-minute drill hits?
- Should you take breaks between sections, and if so, how long?
- How would you practice beforehand to simulate this four-section timed format and build speed without losing accuracy?
“12 seconds per question sounds fine until you're actually in it and your brain just stops.”
