Investment Banking Recruiting

I just transferred into a top 25 target school(Peak Frameworks). I am a junior now. I joined some clubs and one of the clubs visited an Elite Boutique/Middle Market bank. I met with a handful of bankers and they all went to school that I transferred into. I am 99% sure I will get an interview. I will be driving a few hours to meet with an investment banker in about a week, who also went to my current school. I have about 2-3 weeks for a potential interview. I don't know what to expect, how to study, or how to prepare. I haven't even finished a basic accounting class yet. What are some advice you guys can give me? Do i just memorize the 400?I want to do well and land the summer position.
