I got the offer ... now what?

Just got an offer as a SA in IB. I worked really hard to get this position and am glad that recruiting was so early but was wondering how I can now start to prepare for the internship itself. I've been using Wall Street Prep but was wondering if anyone had any books / resources they would recommend to help me prepare. Thanks

Aside from the usual advice of having fun etc, brush up on your powerpoint. Lot of focus on excel here but ppt plays an equally important role whether its for a teaser, pitch, CIM, etc. Get comfortable with aligning images, pasting model outputs in a crisp manner and look at old pitchbooks to get an idea of how things are worded / the type of language used. Don't spend a stupid amount of time on this but maybe an hour or two on the weekends if you have nothing else going on. Super helpful when you start.
