FT Analyst: Getting Better at Financial Modeling

I am an incoming analyst in training right now working at an EB (think Parella/PJT/Moelis) and majored in Engineering in College. Last summer I interned in project finance and have no other finance experience (though i've taken accounting at school). I was lucky enough to land my FT job through networking and persistence.

But I am feeling behind the kids who have done summer internships in banking in terms of modeling. My training hasn't gone in depth into modeling yet but I am just wondering what I should do to get up to speed and become good / really understand the mechanics of modeling since I have no experience with it and know that I will be required to deal with it during my full time job.
