PIMCO assessment test

Hey guys,

I have a final-round interview with PIMCO this week, and was told that before going for the interview, I need to take an one-hour assessment test about excel and finance. Has anybody taken the test before? Any suggestions on how to prepare for the test?

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciate!
