  1. WSO and Break Into Wall Street courses.
  2. Start networking, writing to analysts on Linkedin.
  3. Read news every day (WSO, FT, The Economist, efinancialcareers).
  4. Brush up your resume, give it to some people for review.
  5. Start preparing excel with all BB/MM/Boutiques/PEs and reasearch the spring weeks/ summer internship deadlines.
