How should I maximise my chances of converting Lazard Spring to a summer?

Hi, I was fortunate enough to recently receive an offer to attend the 3 day Lazard Spring Insight in London this April. On the 3rd day there will be an AC comprising of tests (capp?), group exercise, presentation and written case study. If I get through that I will be called back for final round interviews with senior employees.

How should I go about preparing for the AC/has anyone gone through it before and would be willing to give me some tips?

I believe I have the soft skills but am worried I will get tripped up at the technical areas e.g tests etc as I am academically weaker I suppose. I go to a target school but I am less academically smart and it takes me longer to grasp concepts etc.

Any help would be appreciated as if I don't covert I am fucked as in a year abroad next year and can't leave the country for first 90 days due to visa hah.
