Regions Bank Pre-Employment Assessment: What to wear?

Short story: recent college graduate, trying to find a job (any job until I get one in my field) and I've put in an application to be a teller at Regions bank. There's a pre-employment assessment I have to go tomorrow. Regions's site has told me next to nothing about it other than where it is, but I've gleamed from the intertubes that it's basically some videos and a test I have to pass in order to be considered for an interview.
My question is what do I wear? It's in the main Regions building in my state and in the HR department, but it's not an official interview. I was thinking suit, but I asked my mom and she said I should probably go a little more casual with just khakis and a shirt and tie since it's not an actual interview. So H&A what should I wear? Has anyone else gone to one before? What did you wear?

Step 2: Look at bank workers
Step 3: Look at self
Does your outfit look similar to the workers?
If Yes: Smile, go to assessment
If No: Go change and start at Step 1
but they're listening to every word I say
Not necessarily true. It's almost always better to wear a tie to an interview even if you wouldn't have to wear one to the job every day. Like, I would suggest wearing a tie if you're applying to be a McDonald's fry cook. And what if you go into the bank on Hawaiian Shirt Day and see everyone wearing Hawaiian shirts? You certainly shouldn't show up to an interview or even a pre-interview wearing a Hawaiian shirt.
One of the parting quotes from someone at the company I work for, when talking about someone else, said "He's the only person I know of that came into the interview wearing a tie and still got the job!"
It really, really depends on where you're interviewing at. A bank, though? That's tie material.
At least, that's what it's like whenever I go in.
Either really nice well fitting khakis or dress pants, and a dress shirt
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
Seen so many wrinkled dress shirts.
