RX Banking/ Turnaround Consulting

Hi,

I am a current sophomore at a very large public school, with a great alumni base. Now I am a good learner (4.0 GPA) but I am not a genius by any means.

Realistically, how long would it take me to learn as much as I can about RX/ Turnaround consulting, in order to be a top candidate when recruiting for RX banker and consultant internships. Also is there any thing I should try to tackle first or become really knowledgeable about? And what would be a good backup to also recruit for in case RX doesn’t work out, would LevFin be a good alternative or something more general like M&A generalist roles?

I am aso not completely new to the material, I know the more foundational ideas behind RX and cap structure. I am also about halfway through the credit investors handbook by gatto and I just started Distressed Debt Analysis by Moyer.

Any tips and advice would be greatl
