Excel Practice Problems

So you guys have been really awesome with me! I'm finishing my last week of job search and I have a final round "Excel test" with a fund of hedge funds.

What kinds of skills would I need? I can do pivottables, lookups, macros and VBA scripts... is there anything else I need to know? Does anyone have like an example dataset [or link to one] that would be helpful?

Thanks everyone.
