Preparing for Cap Markets (DCM) AC

I'm a non-Finance/Econ major, so my knowledge is not as comprehensive as those fellas.

I want to prepare really well but a bit worried as I got some curb balls about the impact on commodities, geopolitical events, macro-economic stuff but the most difficult one was about knowing the different types of bonds. I got really good feedback from the interviewer afterwards, so I'm hoping I'll get through to the AC.

What other resources, articles or books can I read up on to prep for the AC apart from the CFA Fixed Income reading?
