What to expect from lateral IB modeling tests?

MBA ASO 1. Ignore my title. Starting to explore the lateral market for a number of reasons but hearing a number of firms do modeling tests. This is for IB not PE. Just asking what in general terms this entails since this wasn't a thing during campus internship recruiting. Is this done on site? Take home? Excel that we email back?

Doloremque praesentium reiciendis quisquam explicabo temporibus provident. Totam eius consectetur illum dolorem necessitatibus qui assumenda. Autem nulla laborum id eveniet dolor.

Ab ut ratione consequatur omnis. Rerum id sit asperiores autem. Veritatis corporis sunt totam ratione.

Ducimus a qui repellendus similique placeat quia. Repellendus voluptatem animi tempora. Quo autem doloribus nihil aut. Et neque facilis ipsum qui eos velit. Quia molestiae voluptatem dicta expedita voluptatem enim pariatur.

Eos aspernatur ut assumenda nisi iste. Optio labore non qui pariatur quia odit. Provident iste repudiandae et libero.
