Based on the most helpful WSO content, UBS's modeling tests, such as a 90-minute one, are likely to focus on fundamental financial modeling skills. These could include building or updating a 3-statement model, performing a DCF analysis, or working on an LBO model. The key is to use logical assumptions, keep the model simple, and ensure accuracy in your calculations.

If you're preparing for this test, it would be beneficial to practice: 1. 3-statement modeling: Ensure you can link the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement seamlessly. 2. DCF analysis: Be ready to calculate free cash flows, discount them, and determine a valuation. 3. LBO modeling basics: If applicable, understand how to structure a leveraged buyout model, including debt schedules and returns analysis.

For additional preparation, consider leveraging resources like the WSO Elite Modeling Package, which includes lessons on financial statement modeling, DCF, M&A, LBO, and more. This can help you refine your skills and approach the test with confidence.
