ER Internship Positioning

I recently had a phone call with a recruiter from a middle market in the Midwest. I had originally been looking for an IB SA position, but they reserve those positions for undergrads that just finished their junior year, and seeing as I'm a sophomore I wasn't eligible. However, she told me their equity research internship was still an option. The program is also intended for juniors, but I have a shot because of my high gpa and stock pitch experience from an investment group at my school. I was asked if I had modeling experience, which I don't, so what can I do to make myself more attractive to the selection committee/get an interview? Is there something I can do quick to practice some modeling? Bloomberg certification? Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks
