I have no idea what to do

Im all lost thinking about recruiting and what I should be doing right now, which is alarming given that recruitment (in London) starts in 2 months. I have good experience in building models in valuation, but it was really just repetitive 3S stuff with DCF at the end. I'm not sure how to design ER models & reports by myself, which I will need for interviews.

I have tried to network but the results are absolutely abysmal. Not sure where to go for interview prep. I feel lost and fretting I'm not going to make it this cycle because of this. Im a masters student, aiming for an internship next summer.

Any help would be appreciated.
