Mid-year performance review at BB

So I just graduated from undegrad in Dec-2022 and have been an analyst at this BB for about 4 months. So far, I've been told that my work product has been "good" on some and "okay" on others and overall I have an okay but not great relationship with my team. I also haven't done the official analyst training (which starts next month) since I was an early start so I had to go into the job without any official training. 

I have a mid-year performance review coming up soon and believe that I may receive mid-tier reviews (okay / acceptable performance but not great). 

Given the current environment, should I be worried about this and the potential implications it could have on my employment or am I just over worrying things? Also, what is typically the performance standard for 1st yr BB analysts on average? Do most 1st year analysts at BBs receive "strong" performance reviews or "okay / acceptable" performance reviews?

Just want to have an expectation on what to expect given others in my position / level. Thanks!
