PE Analyst Case Study

Hey all. I have passed interview number 1/3 for an exciting analyst role in PE. The next round is a case study with an IM of 50-70 pages and we have to build a 'very basic LBO model' as well as a 5 slide summary of important points and places of concern etc etc.  

As I really want the job I am desperate to do all I can to progress to the final round. What can you guys recommend I do to prepare and give myself the best chance? I have completed an LBO modelling course already and I am looking for more to do.

All suggestions, whether it be modelling related or case study and IM related, are helpful and greatly appreciated!!

Kind regards, 

C
