Holy Sh*t ... need help ASAP ... PE Associate interview coming up

Holy Sh*t guys,


Help a fellow Monkey out. 

A little back story:
Took the balls to straight up cold email this MM PE VP, asking for a quick chat over the phone. Just got done talking with this person. I straight up asked if they were interested in hiring a PE Associate after explaining my background, interests etc. Guess what ... I have got an interview scheduled with different people at the firm because they are interested in me. The interview process will also include a PE modeling test on-site.

I am super excited but need some help with my preparation. I have access to the usual WSO/BIWS/WSP PE prep material but feel like I need to prep a little better, since this is an incredible opportunity and I would rather be overprepared (I have got decent time to prepare).

Does anybody have real life private equity modeling tests / case studies they are willing to share? Tried looking myself but couldnt find any. Would very very much appreciate that kind gesture. Please PM me.

Thank you very much!
