Real Estate Private Equity Megafund Superday

Hey all,

I have a superday interview for a full-time analyst position at a real estate megafund (BX, KKR, Apollo, etc.) in a couple days. Interview takes place from 9am - 4pm, so I am anticipating some sort of modeling / waterfall excel test. I have seen in some other threads that for experienced hires at these firms there are some pretty complex modeling exams, building a pro forma and waterfall model from scratch.

Does anyone have any knowledge or experience of a modeling exam for analyst superdays (straight out of undergrad)? Anything helps. Thanks.
