IBD In-Person Test – What to Expect?

Hey everyone,

I’ve got an upcoming in-person test with a big international bank for their Investment Banking Division, and I’m trying to get a sense of what to expect. Has anyone here gone through this process recently (or in the past)?

They asked me to bring my personal laptop, which makes me think it could involve some modeling, a case study, or maybe even a timed Excel task. I’d really appreciate any insight into the format, types of questions, difficulty level—anything that could help me prep.

Thanks in advance for any help – happy to return the favor if I can!
