Excel Skills Test for Consulting Help

Hi,

I have a skills test for a consulting position coming up soon relating to restructuring and claims. I am solid on my excel knowledge and what it may consist of in regards to the model that I saw in another post. But I want to freshen up on it as it won't be on DCFs, etc. and will relate more to condensing large amounts of data i.e. claims from a specific company and cleaning/analyzing it. If you have any advice towards these types of models or any practice tests that'd be great as a refresher. If that doesn't make sense let me know so I can clear that up. Thanks in advance.
