Honestly its not a hard job. Just be a bitch and do what you're told to the best of your abilities. Be a hardo in your first few weeks until you get a good grasp of the culture and adjust accordingly. If you want to prepare beforehand I guess get used to PPT and Excel shortcuts and mentally prepare to work until 1am everyday.
Just be normal - be responsive, don't be annoying, take notes (bananaland topic in here the other day about how much of a burden that was for one analyst), ask smart questions, be engaged, pretend you're happy (you'll be pretending until the day you get out).
I wouldn't go nuts studying past the basics, no one expects you to know shit - if you do know a bunch, don't be a know it all.
Don't get too drunk, don't drink too little, power through hangovers. Don't fuck fellow employees, don't shit talk fell employees.
Ultimately, don't make anyone else's day harder or longer.
For your career development and future recruiting, keep notes on the stuff you're doing and understand WHY you're doing what you're doing.
Rest up and enjoy college now, you'll work in the summer.
Most importantly, don't fuck it up.
