I'd be interested to see more questions from the test, but from the examples given I'd say s/algebra test/problem solving test/ is in order.

In that light, the findings become less surprising---still interesting though, since we can test math-word-problem-solving ability quite easily with pen and paper. Could this mean my KhanAcademy math achievements are a better hiring signal than my github?

In terms of hiring, it certainly makes more sense for candidates to pass a 1h test rather than expect them to "prove themselves" by solving a week-long coding challenge...
