Heading into my sophomore year at a non target.

Greetings -

I'm a transfer student whom is by credits heading into my sophomore year in an honor's college at a public school that is considered "Public Ivy", however it is a non target for IB. I've done two paid finance internships at very large company's in successive summers and decided to post this topic in order to gather some advice about what I should do in order to best prepare myself for landing an IB internship next summer.

All advice is much appreciated!
