Incoming Analyst - Any tips/advice to prepare before start date?
I start my job (Coverage group at an MM bank in Chicago) mid-July. Are there any tips/advice you had before starting that really helped you succeed?
For context, I didn't do an IB M&A internship my junior year summer (worked in DCM at a different bank), so I feel like I'm at a disadvantage compared to the other incoming analysts. I'm planning on doing the Adventis FMC program before I start, and studying for SIE/Series Exams will also be good to refresh, but other than that I have nothing else planned.
It's about 7/8 weeks until I start, what should I focus on now to hit the ground running and not lag? Should I go back over technicals, focus on modeling, PowerPoint, or something else?
Would appreciate any advice, Thank you.

Let's not do this.
Why not? Asking genuinely
Bankers are the most inefficient cohort of labor you'll find in the economy. Their entire value proposition is hours worked. It's not worth your time to become any better at it.
More inefficient than the time you spend on your tirade against finance, on a finance site, which you do multiple times per day?
