WSO PE Guide - No Technicals?

The WSO PE prep pack is a great resource, dont get me wrong, but I find it very strange that there are essentially zero technical questions in the guide itself... There are a list of 10 common interview questions, along with a few other important topics such as MoM vs IRR and how to build an LBO etc, but where are the common questions everyone talks about such as comparing Company A who trades at 5.0x to Company B who trades at 6.0x, or comparing what happens when volume goes up by $10 and/or price goes up by $10, etc. Basically any technical question that can be considered a "qualitative technical" question. Where can I find some resources on this?

Those questions (after now having a few interviews) seem to be a lot more common than I thought, yet nobody thought to include an extensive list of them in this guide. Please let me know if you guys have any suggestions on this. Thanks

 

yep - also interested in hearing. I have had BIWS for years and don't really need the videos...just thinking about the LBO samples. Also, if you google LBO samples, you'll come across a few paper ones
