Rising Junior: Questions

I'm currently a rising junior working this summer at a BB (although not IBD). I haven't take any corporate finance classes yet and my job doesn't involve relevant IB modelling/valuation work. So I'm looking to get a better grasp of the fundamentals in order to prepare me for junior-year IBD SA recruitment.

Would it be worth my time to enroll in a modelling course such as Wallstreetprep? Or would I be better off picking up a valuation book by damodaran, McKinsey etc and working through that?

Thanks in advance.
