Help: HEC Master in Finance - Preparation for Programme

I have been admitted to the Master in Finance @ HEC - A miracle because I didn't know during the interview whether the graph of y=1/(1-2x) was convex or concave.

Therefore, I want to prepare for the programme, which apparently is very analytical and maths-focused. Does anyone have any recommendations in terms of preparation? I want to have a solid quantitative background when I begin the programme. Book, online (paid) courses, some key mathematical topics, etc. - all tips are welcome.

Thanks!
