I took it a while ago. Wasn't very prepared for it. It's a combination of statistics, probability, calculus and some basic quant finance stuff.

If you aren't prepared it's pretty hard because it tests a lot of content that you wouldn't necessarily be thinking about or using day to day as a quant researcher. Not so bad if you were recently in school taking these classes but if you are a bit out of school I would definitely study your probability and stats and a bit of basic machine learning principles.
