Consulting interview Prep

Hi long time lurker here. I was recently informed that I got an interview at Bain in the United States coming up. I recently became really interested in consulting but have spent far more time in Finance and have not had the chance to ever prep.

How would you recommend preparing for an interview if you only had roughly 6 days?
