Case study for analyst PE role?

I'm interviewing for an analyst position at a small PE firm for a summer analyst position and was told I would have a case study as part of my final round interview. Anyone have tips on what to expect? Don't want to name the firm, but in general, what should I expect for a case study as an undergrad? Should I be prepared for a full modeling test like what would be done for an associate position, or is it going to be more abstract, more like a consulting interview? Obviously no one knows for certain, just curious what to expect.

Anyone have any preparation tips?
