Didn't do any of my pre-internship training

The title says it all: I didn't do any pre-internship training and start Monday. It is technically impossible to cover all the material at the moment. (The role is an investment role at a large LO AM think T. Rowe/Fidelity)

I've ordered 48 Rules of Power on Amazon and it should be arriving tomorrow, do you think this will be enough to cover as I catch up on the material over next week?

Joking aside, how negatively would it impact me if I'm not up to speed on everything especially early on in the week? (I'm the only intern on my particular team)

Depends on the role - is it ER? My training at a similar firm was mostly ER-focused, and therefore pretty useless for people in other investing roles (like me).

 

Is pre-internship training the same basically for all internships? Mine doesn’t start till next summer but I alr have that book just haven’t read yet
