What to expect in a PE data analytics exam?
I’m in the process for a UMM firm and was asked to do a 10 hour data analytics exam over the weekend, what should I expect and any gold resource out there that I can use to prep?

Bump
Not sure what to expect at that end of the market, but I recently went through an interview process where the firm provided a raw data set alongside the CIM. They gave a little bit of guidance on what could be interesting, but very high level and really left it up to us to figure out what was useful. I mostly stuck with typical stuff like customer/brand/SKU concentration, cohort retention, ASP/margin trends, basic bridges, etc. It seemed to mostly hit the mark with the people I interviewed with.
BUMP. Anyone could provide more information?
