Structured Finance/ Structured Product Interview Question at an EB?

Hi all, 

so I have an interview (2 30-minute technical interviews ) (in person) at an EB in NY. I applied to the IBD, but i seem to have applied to the Structured Finance/Product Group. Im taking a look at it, and I realize it's all wildly different stuff than what is in the M&I Guide. What types of interview questions should I expect. It is IBD, so should I prep more accounting.valuation knowledge? Background is non-finance, and so to be honest to structured product stuff really confuses me. (ie CDO vs CMO, contango, backwardation). Should I expect interview questions dealing with that stuff? Is there a guide where I can see what sample questions ask would be? Kind of really lost right now.....
