AllianceBerstein associate interview, what models should I know?

What types of financial modeling should I know for an Associate interview at AllianceBernstein? Got a phone interview on Thursday, but I am trying to prepare for the on-site interview here if I move forward. I have studied the IB interview guide so I know the valuation, accounting, and finance part, if thats important to AB, not sure. I'm wondering if I should brush up on valuation modeling, or instead learn asset allocation models such as efficient frontiers, risk, and what ever else you might recommend. If I should brush up on the latter please let me know which guide you would recommend on WSO that has the asset allocation modeling. Thanks.
