Current freshman in uni right now. We have a BB coming up here to do an M&A case competition Sept 5. Is there anything I can review/learn about in the meantime to help position myself better for the case comp?

If the case competition includes knowing accounting, finance, the M&A process, and basic modeling, then as a Freshman I don’t know how much you can do to prepare all that in a week. Good luck though.
Look over the Breaking into Wall Street Interview Guide. Gives a great overview of Valuation, Accounting, LBO, and M&A. Found this guide extremely helpful during my case study w/ a BB. Yahoo Finance as well, easily accessible financial data and news for students to understand.
