Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't specific information available about Ardian's off-cycle modeling test in London. If you're preparing for such a test, leveraging resources like the WSO Elite Modeling Package could be highly beneficial. It includes lessons on financial statement modeling, DCF, M&A, LBO, and more, which are commonly tested in private equity and investment banking scenarios.

If you're looking for insights or shared experiences, consider exploring WSO forums or threads related to Ardian or similar firms.
