How long to prep for recruitment modeling tests?

Current first year in a coverage group (so very little modeling) looking to recruit for PE.Assuming decent technical knowledge from IB recruiting (like I can do a super simple LBO easily and understand the mechanics but don't know how to treat things like a deferred tax asset), how much time should I set aside for PE recruitment prep? I'm planning to buy a course of some kind and have plenty of precedent materials.Is one day a weekend for a few weeks enough? Full weekend for 6+ weeks? Any insight would be appreciated
