Capital Markets Interview

Hey all,

I'm a CS major who just landed a first-round interview with a firm's capital markets division. The only problem is, that I literally do not have any finance knowledge whatsoever. Pretty much exclusively M&I 400.

Where should I start? I have this weekend to retain as much as I can. Would love some direction after a series of disappointing dings.
