modelling test for sellside experienced hrie

Has anyone completed a modelling test for the equity research associate role at a bulge bracket before and is willing to share what it entails? Have been told by recruiters it should take up to 2 hours. I assume it's building a three statement model based on financial info provided but would be nice to know granularity, like does the BS items get really complicated? thanks very much in advance!
