Accepted an offer from SMBC... nervous about what's next

Hey I'm a sophomore situated in TX. I will be at SMBC next summer as an investment banking summer analyst in their NYC office.

There's been no contact since the offer letter. I'm nervous as fuck. The superday was literally all virtual, and a week later I got the offer. Is this normal, like no in person superday?? What is the background check, do they care about a drug test? My past MD also I think doesn't like me, even though I did work for him. Do I still need to be vetted? I'm tweaking out
