Help for SA Fixed Inc. Trading Interview

I found out today that I have a first round interview for Fixed Income Trading at a BB in two days for a summer analyst position.

My background is more in the liberal arts, I have done poorly in math courses/my quant background is lacking. I do have fairly extensive work experience in financial services industry, however.

How do I prep and prove to my interviewer that although I have done poorly in math/statistics etc., that I can do well in this position????
