1-Hour LBO Modeling Test For PE Analyst Position, What To Expect?

I have an upcoming LBO modeling test for a lower middle market PE analyst position. I was told they would email me the info and I would then have an hour to send it back to them.

Anyone know what to expect with a time constraint of an hour? 3-statement LBO model or would you expect it to be a short-form LBO? Was told it would be for a company they have already invested in.
