About us

Hycalibre offers modeling tests and case studies that will give you an unfair advantage in your investment banking, hedge fund and private equity interviews – and a headstart after you accept your offer and start working.​

Model tests and case studies

We give you an insider's perspective on the questions you’ll face and guidance on how to approach your modeling test or case study effectively.

Our materials are Excel-based, allowing you to practice repeatedly until you feel fully confident. Additionally, you’ll receive detailed solutions and grading to track your progress.

Our team

Our content is developed by current and former industry professionals from top-tier institutions.

Having been candidates ourselves and now sitting on the other side of the interview process, we have firsthand knowledge of what is being tested and what it takes to succeed.

  • Can I use your models and solutions for my own case studies?
    Yes, absolutely! As our models are dynamically linked and useable, several candidates have "cribbed" our models and solutions to suit their own case studies. We love hearing interesting use-cases like this!
  • There's a model I need but I can't see it. Can you help?
    For sure. Our team have diverse backgrounds across multiple sectors and geographies, so if there's a model you need, please let us know. This can be a generic industry model (e.g. FMCG) or a specific company.
  • What makes Hycalibre different from other prep resources?
    Unlike other prep guides, Hycalibre’s resources are created by professionals with direct buyside experience. This means all materials are realistic and reflect the most current trends and expectations in the industry, providing candidates with a targeted, practical preparation experience.
  • Can I access materials without a membership?
    Yes, of course! Non-members can download materials from the Library, and our DCF model is completely free. Membership gives you the advantage of first-access to new materials and enables you to download the entire library for free.
  • How do I know what you're releasing next?
    You can join our mailing list for free (link on the home page), so you can stay posted on what we're working on. We don't spam and only send emails when we think it is helpful for our customers.

From our customers

"Hycalibre was instrumental in my preparation for competitive buyside interviews. Their rigorous and highly relevant model tests and case studies closely mirrored the case study I was set, in fact the Point72 test was almost a direct replica. I secured offers from both firms I applied to. For anyone targeting roles in the industry’s most competitive markets, Hycalibre is an essential resource."
"Hycalibre's detailed Excel models and write-up solutions served as an excellent starting point for a case study I was assigned. By customising their framework to suit the specifics of my assignment, I was able to deliver a well-structured and comprehensive analysis that aligned with the interviewers' expectations."
