Point72 / BAM Model Test / trading intel

Hi everyone, 

I have an upcoming model test with Point72. I actually have some information on the test from a few years ago from a buddy but I'm really curious if the test has been changed at all since then or if it is similar to the old test (so that I know what to spend time practicing). I would love to share my intel with someone who is about to take a Point72 test to help them prepare and also hopefully understand what the current test will be like. I have serious test taking anxiety and would feel way more confident if I had some sense of what the test will be like. 

Send me a PM if you are interested.
