Hey all, curious to hear any perspectives on how difficult the LBO modeling tests are for UMM/MF firms during their interviews? Do most firms tend to do a 1 hr "basic" LBO test or do most firms of that caliber make you do 2-3 hour 3 statement model LBOs? Really trying to get some more color on this, any input would be appreciated. How do they stack up in comparison to the WSO PE guide?
