How to prepare for summer internship?
I'm about to SA at a top-tier firm (think GS, MS, Moelis) and I would love to get some tips on how to prepare for it. Should I go over any modeling course? Books to read?

GS, MS and Moelis. Hmm, one is not like the other...
Congrats on Natixis
Congrats on Moelis!
They aren’t going to let u touch anything close to a live model.
Best thing you can do is show up with a good attitude and keep it during ur entire internship. Learn how to actively listen, take good notes, be proactive and try to be as helpful as you can be as an intern.
