Learning technicals

Hello everyone, I hope your Monday is off to a great start. How have you learned investment banking technicals before accepting an offer and going through the training program? what did you wish you brushed up on more? I’m looking to understand financial statements, modeling and concepts more fluently without buying a $400 course. Thank you!
