Point72 Academy Summer Internship Interview Financial Modelling

For anyone who has gone through the summer academy interview process, do I have to know to model well for any of the stages of the process? For the case study? I saw the experienced academy requires a full 3-statement model for the case study, but what about the summer academy for college students? Do I have to know modelling at all and at what level?

How could you have “THE MODEL”. What is that?

I got the offer and didn’t touch excel for the case.

 

Well he’s probably talking for the non-dei hires zzz
