They're pricey to work with but are definitely legit. They helped me with my recruiting process. The guys there used to work in PE and know the questions that are commonly asked but that are also not so "straightforward" (basically questions you won't see in typical interview guides). For example, rather than asking you questions like "how do you increase an IRR for a deal," they might throw a random company at you and ask you to talk about its business quality and if you'd invest in such a company. Basically trying to test your business acumen vs. do you know basic finance and how to crank out an LBO if that makes sense

In terms of others, I've heard Peak Frameworks is good to get comfortable with the LBO tests. Not sure if they do live practice interviews though
